Effects of Milnacipran on Widespread Mechanical and Thermal Hyperalgesia of Fibromyalgia Patients

Fibromyalgia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effects of Milnacipran on Widespread Mechanical and Thermal Hyperalgesia of Fibromyalgia Patients

Clinical Trial Summary

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FM) shares many symptoms common to chronic neuropathic pain, including the characteristic hyperalgesia of the skin (thermal, mechanical) and muscles (mechanical) found in almost all FM patients. Milnacipran, a balance norepinephrine-serotonin re-uptake inhibitor, has been found to reduce pain and improve physical function of FM patients. However, little is known about the pain mechanisms that are affected by this medication. Therefore, the investigator wants to determine the efficacy of milnacipran in reducing pain as well as mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia of FM patients during a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial. Because the investigator expects anti-hyperalgesic effects to coincide or precede with effects on clinical FM pain the proposed duration for this trial is 6 weeks.
