Salbutamol for PN?

Was at my pain doctor's today and he told me that in one of his pain journals he receives, an experiment using the drug Salbutamol (an asthma drug) to treat PN was being conducted with some success.

I don't know any more details and was wondering if anybody else had heard of this?

This was done with mice... and the routes of administration were drastic:

looks like it might be a while before it gets to humans.
