Risk of gastrointestinal haemorrhage with long term use of aspirin: meta-analysis.
Sheena Derry,Yoon K. Loke +1 more
TL;DR: Long term therapy with aspirin is associated with a significant increase in the incidence of gastrointestinal haemorrhage, and no evidence exists that reducing the dose or using modified release formulations would reduce the incidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregabalin for acute and chronic pain in adults
TL;DR: Efficacy was demonstrated for dichotomous outcomes equating to moderate or substantial pain relief, alongside lower rates for lack of efficacy discontinuations with increasing dose, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia and painful diabetic neuropathy.
Reference EntryDOI
Gabapentin for chronic neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia in adults
TL;DR: Gabapentin provides pain relief of a high level in about a third of people who take if for painful neuropathic pain, and more conservative estimates of efficacy resulted from using better definitions of efficacy outcome at higher, clinically important, levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review of topical capsaicin for the treatment of chronic pain
TL;DR: Although topically applied capsaicin has moderate to poor efficacy in the treatment of chronic musculoskeletal or neuropathic pain, it may be useful as an adjunct or sole therapy for a small number of patients who are unresponsive to, or intolerant of, other treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topical capsaicin (high concentration) for chronic neuropathic pain in adults
TL;DR: The information the authors have suggests that low-concentration topical capsaicin is without meaningful effect beyond that found in placebo creams; given the potential for bias from small study size, this makes it unlikely that it has any meaningful use in clinical practice.
