University Microfilms
INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You w ill find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

A Randomized, Placebo Controlled Trial of Ibuprofen + Metaxalone, Tizanidine, Or Baclofen for Acute Low Back Pain
HHS Public Access Author manuscript Author ManuscriptAuthor Manuscript Author Ann Emerg Manuscript Author Med. Author Manuscript Author manuscript; available in PMC 2020 October 01. 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.
