Abstract:
The authors studied 43 patients admitted to hospital with acute episodes of ischalgia or recurrences caused by intervertebral disc disease. The patients were randomly selected into two groups treated with dexamethasone in high but rapidly decreasing doses, or tramadol. A comparison of the results in both groups showed that dexamethasone was effective and safe when given by this method to patients with ischalgia.
