No doubt ripe for a big placebo effect. Drop out rate was also high but they accounted for it with high enrollment. Note it's a phase II not III.

I agree on milnacipran chances. phase II was strongly significant. Something strange about their workings with frx has me a little nervous though.

Interestingly, endp's lidoderm patch is finding a lot of off label use in fms. Their patch is very amenable since it can be sliced up and placed on multiple problem spots. Apparently fms pain can be very site specific.

I had an expert witness from Baylor in a case several years ago who firmly believed it was a fabricated disease. She was not a fan of Drs who promoted it is a diagnosis.
