Pharmacy Your Health by Cindy Gietzen R.Ph. Fibromyalgia Management with Drugs Fibromyalgia is a musculoskeletal condition, involving the muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Signs and symptoms of this condition typically begin between the ages of 30 and 55, and generally start at pain in the shoulders and neck.

The back, arms, and legs are other areas of the body that become involved. Signs and symptoms of fibromyalgia include numbness, tingling, and burning sensations. The condition is commonly associated with fatigue, headache, and anxiety. Antidepressant medications have been shown to be effective in treating the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Duloxetine (Cymbalta) is an antidepressant that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of fibromyalgia.

Milnacipran (Savella) IS another medication approved by the FDA for the treatment of fibromyalgia. Pregabalin (Lyrica) and gabapentin (Neurontin) are anticonvulsants that also may help relieve the pain by blocking the release of neurotransmitter chemicals. Analgesic medications, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) and tramadol (Ultram) may be used In combination with other medications for pain. Tricyclic antidepressants, such as Amitriptyline (Elavil) and desipramine (Norpramin) also may be prescribed. Cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) is a centrallyskeletal muscle relaxant that is similar to tricyclic antidepressants and may also be prescribed.
