Micronized and Ultramicronized Palmitoylethanolamide in Fibromyalgia Patients

Fibromyalgia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Efficacy and Tolerability of Micronized and Ultramicronized Palmitoylethanolamide in Fibromyalgia Patients: A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The onset of chronic Fibromyalgia symptomatology is due to central alterations, together with peripheral neuroimmune modifications. Using positron emission tomography (PET), it has been observed for the first time that fibromyalgia patients have a high activation of microglial cells compared to normal subjects. Experimental evidence in neuroinflammation models in vitro and in vivo have demonstrated the anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effect of Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), effects confirmed by observational clinical investigations conducted in patients with fibromyalgia in which micronized and ultra-micronized Palmitoylethanolamide (mPEA and umPEA) reduced the intensity of pain improving the quality of life. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of PEA-m + PEA-um administered as an add-on therapy with a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical investigation.
