My Wife Is Suffering From The Symptoms Of Fibromyalgia For
Question: My wife is suffering from the symptoms of fibromyalgia for several years.
Without diagnosing actual problem treated a lot
At last one tablet given by a doctor gave her very much relief.
When i searched about that medicine, that one is using to treat fibromyalgia.
When looking forward all symptoms were same as fibromyalgia.
For last one year those symptoms were silent and so we lost the description of the tablet.
Now again started same symptoms .
So will you please prescribe good medicine with less side-effects using to treat fibromyalgia.

Brief Answer:
NSAID drugs can be tried as a first line.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief which are available over the counter.
In severe or recurrent cases additional drugs like SSRI or pregabalin may be required, but you have to consult a doctor before starting these drugs and more over these are prescription drugs and not available as over the counter.
Hope I have answered your query.
Thanks
