What Are The Medications For Spine Chronic Pain?
I have just been diagnosed with multi level joint arthropathy. L1-L5. Voltaren gel is a suggested therapy but is not part of the Novartis intended use, no spine application is FDA cleared for this product.
Are there any other medications recommended for spine chronic pain management?
What happened to products like the Kyphon X-stop? My mom has spinal stenosis. She has two X-stop devices in her back and has had great pain reduction since 2008.

really I dont know what x-stop
but gabapentin 300 mg three times a day is a good choice for spine pain but should be started gradually- one tab daily then two then three times
