简要总结

This is a comparative drug trial involving patients with clinically definite Multiple Sclerosis and documented neuropathic pain. Patients will be randomized to receive treatment with either paroxetine or pregabalin. After dose titration, participants will complete various pain scale assessments at several points during the study in order to determine the effectiveness of their assigned pain medication.

详细描述

General Objective:

To determine the effectiveness of drug treatment in the management of MS-induced neuropathic pain.

Specific Objectives:

  • Comparatively assess the effectiveness and safety profile of pregabalin (Lyrica) and paroxetine (Paxil) in managing MS-induced neuropathic pain.
  • Comparatively assess the effectiveness of pregabalin (Lyrica) and paroxetine (Paxil) in improving the quality-of-life associated with MS-induced neuropathic pain.
