Abstract

Disclosed are therapeutic compositions that comprise an aqueous emulsion constituted by a pharmacologically acceptable cationic surfactant, a pharmacologically acceptable non-ionic surfactant, and water. These compositions are effective in relieving pain, especially high level pain and also for reducing trauma, i.e., for minimizing a wide variety of physiological disorders such as those due to physical injury, abscesses, cysts, and the like. The foregoing compositions contain at least about 5 weight percent of each of the two types of surfactants.
