Hi,

Fibromyalgia pain is responded with antidepressants with painkillers like NSAIDs or opioid painkillers. But sciatica pain may need physical therapy, nerve signal modification agents like Pregabalin or Gabapentin is useful.

If sciatica pain not improved with the above medication needed to get physical therapy and decompression.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
