Optimization of approaches to therapy of primaryfibromyalgia

To compare pain relief achieved in standard therapy with Magne-B6 106 patients with primary fibromyalgia
were studied for their pain threshold. In our study patients with fibromyalgia demonstrated magnesium depletion in
plasma and erythrocytes. Administration of Magne-В6 led to restoration of magnesium level both in plasma and erythrocytes.
Pain tolerance of patients was significantly changed after the treatment which was demonstrated in increased pain
thresholds in electroalgometria test. After the treatment with Magne-В6 the increase of pain sensitivity thresholds was
significantly higher than after the treatment without Magne-В6.
