The effects of hydrocortisone sodium succinate on voltage-gated sodium current (I(Na)) were investigated by using the patch-clamp technique in trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons of rat. I(Na) was recorded by whole-cell patch-clamp techniques after different concentrations of hydrocortisone sodium succinate were
