Chronic Pain and Depression

Chronic musculo-skeletal pain syndromes are often associated with variable amount of depressive illnesses. Treatment of such patients purely by using analgesics often proves futile. A comprehensive approach with involvement of psychotherapist is often mandatory.

In a recent report, US-FDA had approved the use of Duloxetine hydrochloride for use in conjunction with nos-steroidal and opioid analgesics.
The molecule has been is use in India for some time now, and has given improved results when used together with analgesics.
