Fibromyalgia medications list

Fibromyalgia treatments
It's difficult to know what medications work for fibromyalgia when everyone may have different symptoms. Often it is a case of trial and error and working with your doctor to find out what helps reduce your symptoms.
Here we have compiled a list of medications reviewed by people with Fibro (not by drug companies) though it is always wise to read the side effects that are provided by the manufacturer whenever starting a new medication.
Many people with fibromyalgia take a combination of medications to control their symptoms. This is where your doctor or specialist is vital for helping you work out what medications may help you and how these meds interact. 
There are three FDA-approved medications for fibromyalgia   -  duloxetine (Cymbalta) and milnacipran (Savella) and pregabalin (Lyrica).  According to Harvard Health, a variety of meds such as amitriptyline (Elavil), cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril), or gabapentin (Neurontin) are usually also considered first-line treatments.
Many other types of drugs are prescribed to treat symptoms like sleep issues, muscle stiffness, pain, and depression.
We hope you find these reviews by people taking these medications, which are linked up below, helpful.
