The drugs off-label
According to Dr. Aline Boulanger, Md, associate professor in
the department of anesthesia
of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Montreal, it is common to use
drugs for
Pain Relief off-label. Many drugs have more of an effect in the body.
Several drugs developed for specific diseases have been found, the use of drugs
with interesting analgesic properties. For example, almost all anticonvulsants /
antiepileptic (including Neurontin), the majority of antidepressants, an
antihypertensive (clonidine) and an antiarrhythmic (the mexiletine) have no
indication for the
Pain Relief, but provide
relief of pain to some patients.
