[Adjuvant therapy of pain syndromes: possibilities of using nucleotides].

Despite the variety of treatment options, pain syndromes are widespread in the population. Adjuvant methods, in particular vitamins and vitamin combinations, are widely used, along with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, myorelaxants and anticonvulsants, by physicians of different specialties. In recent years, new drugs containing pyrimidine nucleotides (uridine monophosphate) were brought to market. The paper describes analgesic effects of uridine monophosphate and choline, possibilities of their simultaneous use in combination with vitamins to promote the recovery of damaged structured of the peripheral nervous system, including remyelination and neuroplasticity. It has been concluded that nucleotide complexes can be effectively used as adjuvant therapy of pain.
