چکیده

The author of the above-mentioned paper would like to make the following adjustment to her article. In the last paragraph of the ‘Current Treatments’ section, the sentence currently reads ‘Lidocaine/tetracaine cream (Pliaglis , Galderma Laboratories, Texas, USA) is the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved stable compounded mixture of 7 % lidocaine and 7 % tetracaine cream.’ This sentence should read ‘Lidocaine/tetracaine cream (Pliaglis , Galderma Laboratories, Texas, USA) is the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved stable eutectic mixture of 7 % lidocaine and 7 % tetracaine cream.’ This change has also been made to the article summary slide (available at: http://www.pain therapy-open.com/). The author thanks Springer Healthcare for publishing the correction.
