- W2029135085 abstract "Chronic or persistent pain is a common comorbidity of aging, primarily due to the relatively high frequency of pain-associated disorders in this population (e.g., inflammatory and noninflammatory musculoskeletal disease, zoster infection, diabetes, stroke, and peripheral and central neurological diseases). Acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids are important long-term analgesics in this age group. However, adjunctive agents are also important in the management of persistent pain in the elderly, especially neuropathic pain. Oral antiepileptic drugs, mexiletine, baclofen, tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin–norepinephrine dual reuptake inhibitors and intranasal/injectable calcitonin are the subjects of this review of the management of persistent, nonmalignant pain in the elderly. While some of these agents are considered narrow-spectrum analgesics (e.g., baclofen in trigeminal neuralgia and calcitonin in bone pain), most are broad-spectrum analgesics, useful in neuropathic pain syndromes of multiple etiologies. Within the antiepileptic drug class, gabapentin and carbamazepine can be considered first-line agents, followed by lamotrigine and pregabalin as second-line agents, and the other most recently approved drugs as third-line or ‘salvage’ agents. The tricyclic antidepressants have numerous precautions/contraindications and tolerability issues in this population, thus reducing their utility. Duloxetine and venlafaxine are the only useful analgesics among the modern antidepressants. Challenges for the future include not only the search for more effective and less toxic adjunctive analgesics for the elderly, but also translating our knowledge of current and future analgesics into effective therapies in the ‘real world’ community and institutional settings where elderly people live. There is no justification in our society today for anyone to live with untreated or undertreated persistent pain." @default.
