Effective chronic fatigue medications
Medications
for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are pharmacologic therapy is directed
toward the relief of specific symptoms experienced by the individual
patient. Patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome appear particularly
sensitive to drugs, especially those that affect the central nervous
system. Thus, the usual treatment strategy is to begin with very
low doses and to escalate the dosage gradually as necessary prescription
medications. Antidepressants have been used to treat depression
and non-depressed in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients receiving
treatment with serotonin reuptake inhibitors have been found by
some physicians to benefit from this treatment as well or better
than depressed patients.
Anxiety or Anxiolytic
agents are used to treat panic disorder in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
patients. Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs: These drugs may be
used to relieve pain and fever in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients.
These medications are generally safe when used as directed, but
can cause a variety of adverse effects, including kidney damage,
gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.
Antimicrobials: An infectious cause for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
has not been identified, and antimicrobial agents are not commonly
prescribed for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Antiallergy Therapy: Some Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients have
histories of allergy, and these symptoms may flare periodically.
Non-sedating antihistamines may be helpful for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
patients. Antihypotensive therapy: Fludrocortisone has sometimes
been prescribed for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients who have had
a positive tilt table test. Florinef is currently being tested in
controlled studies for its efficacy in the treatment of Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome patients. Antihypertensive Therapy: Beta blockers
such as atenolol have also been prescribed for patients with a positive
tilt table test. Ampligen is a synthetic nucleic acid product that
stimulates the production of interferons, a family of immune response
modifiers that are also known to have anti-viral activity.
One report
of a double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome patients documented modest improvements in cognition and
performance among Ampligen recipients compared with the placebo
group. Ampligen is not approved by the food and drug administration
for widespread use and the administration of this drug in Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome patients should be considered experimental. Dehydroepiandrosterone
was reported in preliminary studies to improve symptoms in some
patients. Kutapressin is a crude extract from pig's liver. Its use
should be regarded as experimental in any clinical circumstance,
and there is no scientific evidence that it has any value in the
treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients.
