Pharmacological management of neuropathic pain in older adults: an update on peripherally and centrally acting agents.

Brian E McGeeney1.   

Abstract

The burden of neuropathic pain in older adults is great and the practitioner is challenged to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. Many common neuropathic pain syndromes are more prevalent in the older population, and older adults also carry greater sensitivity to certain side effects. The health care professional should have a thorough familiarity with all medications available to treat this difficult group of disorders.
