  • A Randomized, Placebo Controlled Trial of Ibuprofen + Metaxalone, Tizanidine, Or Baclofen for Acute Low Back Pain

Published in final edited form as: Ann Emerg Med. 2019 October ; 74(4): 512–520. doi:10.1016/j.annemergmed.2019.02.017. A randomized, placebo controlled trial of ibuprofen + metaxalone, tizanidine, or baclofen for acute low back pain Benjamin W. Friedman, MD MS1, Eddie Irizarry, MD1, Clemencia Solorzano, PharmD2, Eleftheria Zias, RPh2, Scott Pearlman, MD1, Andrew Wollowitz, MD1, Michael P. Jones, MD1, Purvi D. Shah, MD MSc1, E. John Gallagher, MD1 1Department of Emergency Medicine, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Montefiore, Bronx, NY, USA 2Pharmacy Department, Montefiore, Bronx, NY, USA Abstract Background: Patients with low back pain (LBP) are often treated with non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) and skeletal muscle relaxants (SMR). We compared functional outcomes and pain among acute LBP patients randomized to a one week course of ibuprofen + placebo versus ibuprofen + one of three SMRs: baclofen, metaxalone, or tizanidine. Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, 4-arm study conducted in two urban emergency departments (ED). Patients with non-radicular LBP for <=two weeks were eligible if they had a score >5 on the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), a 24-item inventory of functional impairment due to LBP. All participants received 21 tablets of ibuprofen 600mg, to be taken TID, as needed. Additionally, they were randomized to baclofen 10mg, metaxalone 400mg, tizanidine 2mg, or placebo. Participants were instructed to take one or two of these capsules, TID, as needed. All participants received a 10 minute educational session.

  • Ibuprofen Plus Metaxolone, Tizandine, Or Baclofen for Low Back Pain. a Randomized Trial
    IRB NUMBER: 2017-7566 IRB APPROVAL DATE: 03/29/2017 Ibuprofen plus metaxolone, tizandine, or baclofen for low back pain. A randomized trial Ibuprofen plus metaxolone, tizanidine, or baclofen for LBP. A randomized trial Version 1 03272017 IRB NUMBER: 2017-7566 IRB APPROVAL DATE: 03/29/2017 Specific Aims Up to ½ of emergency department (ED) patients with acute, new onset low back pain (LBP) report persistent moderate or severe pain one week after the ED visit.(1, 2) Skeletal muscle relaxants (SMR) are commonly used to treat LBP though evidence supporting efficacy is generally lower quality. We have demonstrated previously that two commonly used SMRs, cyclobenzaprine(1) and diazepam(2), when combined with an NSAID, do not improve LBP outcomes more than NSAIDs used alone. This proposal seeks to determine whether there is any benefit from other commonly used SMRs. The first SMR to be included in this study is baclofen. The precise mechanism of action of baclofen is unknown. Baclofen inhibits monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes at the spinal level, although actions at supraspinal sites may contribute to its clinical effect. Baclofen is an analog of the neurotransmitter GABA, but it is uncertain whether GABA is involved in its clinical effects. In a randomized, placebo controlled study, 200 patients with acute LBP were randomized to baclofen or placebo.(3) Patients randomized to baclofen reported modestly better outcomes four and ten days later. The second investigational SMR is tizanidine. Tizanidine is a centrally acting alpha-2-adrenergic agonist. It reduces muscle spasticity by increasing presynaptic inhibition of motor neurons. In a randomized, placebo controlled trial, 112 patients with acute LBP were randomized to tizanidine.

  • SKELAXIN® (Metaxalone) Tablets
    SKELAXIN® (Metaxalone) Tablets SKELAXIN TABLET DESCRIPTION ® SKELAXIN (metaxalone) is available as an 800 mg oval, scored pink tablet. Chemically, metaxalone is 5-[(3,5- dimethylphenoxy) methyl]-2-oxazolidinone. The empirical formula is C12H15NO3, which corresponds to a molecular weight of 221.25. The structural formula is: Metaxalone is a white to almost white, odorless crystalline powder freely soluble in chloroform, soluble in methanol and in 96% ethanol, but practically insoluble in ether or water. Each tablet contains 800 mg metaxalone and the following inactive ingredients: alginic acid, ammonium calcium alginate, B-Rose Liquid, corn starch, and magnesium stearate. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Mechanism of Action The mechanism of action of metaxalone in humans has not been established, but may be due to general central nervous system (CNS) depression. Metaxalone has no direct action on the contractile mechanism of striated muscle, the motor end plate, or the nerve fiber. Pharmacokinetics The pharmacokinetics of metaxalone have been evaluated in healthy adult volunteers after single dose administration of SKELAXIN under fasted and fed conditions at doses ranging from 400 mg to 800 mg. Absorption Peak plasma concentrations of metaxalone occur approximately 3 hours after a 400 mg oral dose under fasted conditions. Thereafter, metaxalone concentrations decline log-linearly with a terminal half-life of 9.0 ± 4.8 hours. Doubling the dose of SKELAXIN from 400 mg to 800 mg Reference ID: 4230551 results in a roughly proportional increase in metaxalone exposure as indicated by peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) and area under the curve (AUC). Dose proportionality at doses above 800 mg has not been studied.

  • Analgesia for Non-Intubated Patients
    Practice Management Guidelines for Analgesia in the Non-Intubated Patient Division of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care I. Rationale: Multimodal analgesia (MMA) regimens are defined as the use of a variety of medications to target different physiologic mechanisms of action in either the central and/or peripheral nervous system to effect pain relief. [1] MMA has been shown through randomized trials to result in overall better pain relief with less opioid consumption compared to single modality pain regimens. [2,3] MMA includes, but is not limited to, usage of acetaminophen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, narcotics, and gabapentinoids. Locoregional and neuraxial blockade can also serve as important adjuncts in MMA regimens. II. Algorithm Patient with Acute Pain and NO Enteral Access Patient with preexisting opiate use and/or risk factors for difficult analgesic control? • Chronic opiate use • Active IV drug Use YES Consider Acute Pain • Suboxone or methadone use Service consultation • Chronic pain/fibromyalgia • Pain refractory to measures outlined within this PMG • Meets APS consult criteria per Rib fracture & APS Guidelines PMG NPO Multimodal Regimen: -PRN hydromorphone if patient unable to manage PCA -Scheduled acetaminophen PR -Scheduled ketorolac IV (if no contraindications) - Scheduled or PRN methocarbamol IV (if having muscle spasms) -Lidocaine patch if complaining of localized pain Considerations for PCA use NPO or not tolerating PO meds?

  • District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia Marketplace Formulary
    District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia Marketplace Formulary Last Update: 09/07/2021 The formulary is a list of drugs covered by your plan. The preferred drugs in the formulary are chosen by a group of Kaiser Permanente physicians and pharmacists known as the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee. The Committee meets regularly to evaluate and select drugs that are safe and effective for our members. This formulary applies only to outpatient drugs and self-administered drugs. It does not apply to medical service drugs or medications used in inpatient settings or administered in one of the Kaiser Permanente medical centers. You may have specific exclusions, copays, or coinsurance amounts that are not reflected in the formulary drug list. Please consult your Evidence of Coverage or Membership Agreement for additional information regarding your pharmacy benefits, including any specific limitations or exclusions. Generic, Brand Name and Specialty Drugs Kaiser Permanente covers generic, brand name and specialty drugs at the applicable tier copay or cost share. A generic drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as having the same active ingredient as the brand name drug. Brand name drugs are manufactured and sold by the pharmaceutical company that originally researched and developed the drug. When the patent on a brand name drug expires, other pharmaceutical companies may then manufacture and sell the FDA- approved generic version of the drug at lower prices. Specialty drugs are high cost, prescription medications used to treat serious or chronic medical conditions and require special handling, administration or monitoring. In most cases, your doctor will prescribe a generic drug if one is available.
