A Study to Evaluate the Effects of Epidural Lidocaine Administration on the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Profiles of DepoDur® (Morphine Sulfate Extended-release Injection) in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Delivery
Description:
To evaluate the levels of morphine in a patient’s blood when morphine is given into the
epidural space in the form of DepoDur® either alone or following a dose of lidocaine also
given in the epidural space. Specifically, we are looking at pregnant women undergoing
cesarean delivery who will be receiving these medications. A secondary objective is to
evaluate how well DepoDur® works for pain control, as well as its safety, when it is given
either alone or following a dose of epidural lidocaine.
