Study Summary

The global prevalence of Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) ranges from 14% to as high as 42%. In addition WHO also estimates that 40% of people over the age of 60 years suffer from MSD and about 80% of the people have had low back pain at some point in their life. In Pakistan, to estimate the prevalence of MSD, there is no data available based on the local population. Locally, studies were conducted on the specific subject pools mainly considering the work related musculoskeletal disorders and backache. However, no real data is available for the symptomatic management of painful musculoskeletal disorders in multiple settings to calculate more generalizable results. So this study is planned and if we found good results then it will help physicians to prescribe the above said medicine to all such cases.

Study Description

The management of musculoskeletal pain is complex therefore plethora of treatment options are available include non-pharmacological treatments , complementary therapies, and pharmacological interventions. In order to provide optimal care to patients with musculoskeletal pain and ensure the efficient use of healthcare resources, a comprehensive overview of the available evidence for the most effective treatment options for musculoskeletal pain presentations is essential. In this context, an observational study is planned on the efficacy and safety of analgesic combination (i.e Nuberol Forte®). Nuberol Forte® is a combination of muscle relaxant (Orphanedrine) and an analgesic/antipyretic (Paracetamol/Acetaminophen). There are clear indications that the combination of Orphenadrine with Paracetamol may give increased antinociceptive activity and duration of action over and above the use of Orphenadrine or Paracetamol alone.
