Actual (reported)Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome characterized by chronic and widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue sleep disturbances and cognitive and somatic symptoms. It is commonly conjectured that central sensitization is physiological hallmark of FM. Therefore, centrally acting medications including antidepressants and anticonvulsants are used to treat FM via downregulating dorsal horn sensitization and systemic hyperexcitability.However, those drugs are limited in clinical practice resulting from dose-limiting adverse effects and incomplete drug efficacy.Shugan Dingtong decoction(SGDTD) is a Chinese herbal formula and has been used for treatment of FM in clinical practice many years. However, few research can provide high-quality evidence on the efficacy and safety of SGDTD for the treatment of FM. Therefore, a parallel-group randomized controlled trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SGDTD on FM.
