Could common pain pills stop lingering lyme arthritis?
NCT ID NCT04038346
Summary
This study aimed to see if giving scheduled doses of common anti-inflammatory pain relievers (like naproxen) right when a child is diagnosed with Lyme arthritis could prevent the condition from becoming long-lasting. It compared scheduled pain relievers to scheduled acetaminophen (Tylenol) to see which led to faster symptom resolution and fewer cases of hard-to-treat arthritis. The trial was terminated early after enrolling only 3 participants.
