Three: FDA has approved 3 medications as fibromyalgia (FM) specific: Lyrica, Savella (milnacipran) & Cymbalta; non-opioid pain pills. Many doctors use other medications for various symptoms experienced by FM sufferers. This is ethical & is called "off label" use. Opiates seem natural for FM pain, but are officially discouraged. Studies of Cannabis have shown efficacy.
