Ten subjects were on continuous medication at the time of the study, including two taking anticonvulsants (phenobarbital and phenytoin). Additionally, numerous drugs approved for other medical conditions have been found to work for pain, including antidepressants, antiarrhythmics (drugs used to correct irregular heart beat) and anticonvulsants (drugs used to prevent seizures). We collected data on medication used (pain medications, sedatives, muscle relaxants, anticonvulsants, or antidepressants) because these drugs may alter the perception of pain or symptoms during the PE and may affect responses on self-report measures of symptoms and function. |
