New hope for stubborn back pain? study tests alternative when common meds fail

NCT ID NCT05851976

Summary

This study is testing whether the medication duloxetine can help people with low back pain who don't get enough relief from common anti-inflammatory painkillers like naproxen. Researchers are enrolling 120 adults who visit the emergency room with recent back pain to see if duloxetine reduces pain and improves daily function compared to a placebo. The goal is to find better options for people whose back pain persists despite initial treatment.
