Pharmacological Treatment of Fibromyalgia

The pharmacological treatment of fibromyalgia is best considered part of a multimodal approach to management. There are many different agents used in an attempt to ameliorate fibromyalgia symptoms, however few have robust published evidence to support their efficacy in this patient group. Medications are most appropriate when used to target specific illness features, and further research is needed to clarify their roles in this clinically heterogenous syndrome.
