Abstract

See full text

A novel and useful apparatus for delivering an anesthetic locally to the cervical region of a female is provided, wherein the apparatus comprises a ring having a surface and at least one depression on the surface. An anesthetic composition comprising an anesthetic agent and an excipient are placed within the at least one depression. The ring is comprised of a pharmaceutically acceptable inert material that is biocompatible. Furthermore, the ring is of sufficient size such that it can be inserted into the vaginal canal of a female. In the vaginal canal, the anesthetic agent is immediately released from the anesthetic composition and directly anesthetizes the cervical region.
