Epilepsy drug trial offers hope for debilitating pancreatitis pain

NCT ID NCT05603702

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether adding an existing epilepsy drug, lacosamide, to standard opioid painkillers is safe and tolerable for adults with chronic pancreatitis. The main goal is to see if the combination helps reduce severe abdominal pain and might allow patients to use lower doses of opioids. Researchers will carefully monitor 24 participants for side effects over a short treatment period.
