About
To evaluate superiority of HDC in comparison to placebo in the treatment of chronic low-back pain in relation to pain, functional impairment, quality of life, and state of health during a 15-week treatment period.
Full description
Low-back pain is often provoked by inflammatory edema in the region of the facet joints. In naturopathy, a fixed homeopathic drug combination (HDC) is established in the treatment of edema and swellings. For the first time, the efficacy of HDC was investigated in the treatment of low-back pain.
Objective: To examine the efficacy and safety of HDC medication vs. placebo in the treatment of chronic low back pain considering constitution and diathesism in a double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial.
