Implantable or insertable medical devices are provided, which comprises: (a) a biocompatible polymer; and (b) at least one therapeutic agent selected from an anti-inflammatory agent, an analgesic agent, an anesthetic agent, and an antispasmodic agent. The medical devices are adapted for implantation or insertion at a site associated with pain or discomfort upon implantation or insertion. In many embodiments, the therapeutic will be selected from at least one of (i) ketorolac and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof (e.g., ketorolac tromethamine) and (ii) 4-diethylamino-2-butynylphenylcyclohexyl glycolate and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof (e.g., oxybutynin chloride). Also provided are uses for the implantable or insertable medical devices, which uses comprise reducing pain or discomfort accompanying the implantation or insertion of such devices. Further uses may comprise reducing microbial buildup along the device. Methods for manufacturing implantable or insertable medical devices are also provided.

An implantable or insertable medical device comprising: (a) an extruded first biocompatible matrix polymer region that comprises a matrix polymer and at least one therapeutic agent and (b) a coextruded second biocompatible matrix polymer region that comprises a matrix polymer and at least one therapeutic agent, wherein one of the matrix polymers comprises a non-biodegradable polymer and another of the matrix polymers comprises a biodegradable polymer. 2. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said non-biodegradable polymer is selected from the group consisting of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers, copolymers of ethylene with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, elastomeric polyurethanes and polyurethane copolymers, metallocene catalyzed polyethylene, ionomers and vinyl aromatic copolymers. 3. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said biodegradable polymer is selected from the group consisting of polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, and copolymers and mixtures thereof. 4. The medical device of claim 1, wherein said non-biodegradable polymer is an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer. 5. The medical device of claim 1, wherein at least one biocompatible matrix polymer region comprises a radio-opacifying agent. 6. The medical device of claim 5, wherein said radio-opacifying agent comprises bismuth subcarbonate. 7. The medical device of claim 1, at least one therapeutic agent is selected from the group consisting of chemotherapeutic agents, NSAIDs, steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, and mixtures thereof. 8. The medical device of claim 1, further comprising one or more barrier layers at least partially covering said at least one matrix polymer region. 9. The medical device of claim 1, a first polymeric barrier layer at least partially covering an interior surface of said first biocompatible matrix polymer region; and a second polymeric barrier layer at least partially covering an exterior surface of said first biocompatible matrix polymer region. 10. The medical device of claim 9, wherein each of said first biocompatible matrix polymer region, and said first and second polymeric barrier layers is in the form of an annulus. 11. The medical device of claim 9, wherein the first and second polymeric barrier layers comprise the same polymeric materials. 12. The medical device of claim 9, wherein the first and second polymeric barrier layers comprise different polymeric materials. 13.

The medical device of claim 1, wherein the first biocompatible matrix polymer region comprises an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer. 15. The medical device of claim 9, wherein each of the first and second polymeric barrier layers comprises a material selected from the group consisting of metallocene catalyzed polyethylenes and polyethylene copolymers, ionomers, elastomeric polyurethanes and polyurethane copolymers, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers and copolymers of ethylene with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. 16. The medical device of claim 1, wherein the medical device is selected from the group consisting of a stent cover, a biliary stent, a ureteral stent, a pancreatic stent, a urinary catheter, a venous access device, a peritoneal access device, a device connecting or providing drainage between two sterile body environments, and a device connecting or providing drainage between a non-sterile and a sterile body environment. 17. The medical device of claim 16, wherein the device comprises a device connecting or providing drainage between a non-sterile and a sterile body environment. 18. The medical device of claim 16, wherein the device comprises a stent cover comprising a hollow tubular structure adapted to be placed over a stent that comprises a woven, knitted or braided open mesh design comprising a biocompatible material selected from the group consisting of stainless steel or a shape memory material. 19. The medical device of claim 8, wherein at least one of said one or more barrier layers comprises a biodegradable polymer. 20. The medical device of claim 19, where said biodegradable polymer is selected from the group consisting of polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid and copolymers and mixtures thereof. 21. An implantable or insertable medical device comprising: (a) a first extruded polymeric matrix region comprising a first biocompatible polymer and a therapeutic agent, and (b) a second extruded polymer matrix region comprising a second biocompatible polymer and a radio-opacifying agent, wherein said first and second biocompatible polymers may be the same or different. 22. An implantable or insertable medical device comprising: a single-layer matrix polymer structure formed from a mixture comprising an extruded polymeric matrix region comprising (a) a biocompatible polymer, (b) a radio-opacifying agent, and (c) at least one therapeutic agent, wherein said medical device is adapted for implantation or insertion at a site that is associated with pain or discomfort upon implantation or insertion.
