The pain score result from the blinded phase indicated that the amount of decrease was significantly greater in the drug group (p-value = 0.024) compared with those on placebo, while the pain score resulted from the open label setting indicated that the amount of decrease was significantly greater in the placebo group (p-value = 0.043). This would be expected since those on active drug continued to take active drug and patients who had received the look-alike placebo received the active drug only during this phase of the study.

Could you update me on the Henry Ford study done on abdominal adhesions and the effective treatment done with pregabalin. My wife has abdominal adhesions with the classic symptoms of nausea, extreme pain and etc due to numerous surgeries done over 20 years ago, but the symptoms are just now revealing themselves. Over the past 4 months the episodes are becoming more frequent. Her family dr has referred her to a local gastroenterologist and we are waitng on the initial appt date. I am going to show him this article, but I suppose pregabalin has not been approved yet for treatment of abdominal adhesions, is that correct? Any information will be appreciated. Thank you.
