title: Viminol analgesic activity in elderly patients with chronic pain: a controlled evaluation, using self-rating questionnaires.
abstract: The analgesic effects of single oral doses of viminol (70 mg), of viminol (70 mg) combined with chlordiazepoxide (10 mg) and of chlordiazepoxide (10 mg) were compared in 41 outpatients with chronic pain mostly due to neoplasms. Alone, or combined with chlordiazepoxide, viminol proved significantly more effective than chlordiazepoxide; No difference in analgestic effect was observed between viminol combined with chlordiazepoxide and viminol alone. The use of self-administered questionnaires was found particularly convenient for study of analgesics in outpatients.
