We investigated the potential of vitamin E, when combined with pentoxifylline, in treating symptomatic epidural fibrosis, a common cause of persistent back pain after surgery.
A case study involving a patient suffering from chronic leg and back pain showed remarkable improvement after three months of this combined treatment over a period of 3.5 years.
By April 2001, he experienced total symptom regression, although residual fibrosis remained. This finding suggests that vitamin E could offer hope for individuals struggling with similar conditions, but more studies are necessary to validate these results.

Pain gone rapidly

While in hospital, my eyes were sore and painful. Upon returning home, once I resumed my regular medications, significant relief occurred within a day and a half; soon, the pain had entirely vanished! Thank you.

Reduced dry eye pain

They work. I purchased these for dry eye pain from my desk job, as I gaze at computer screens all day. They took 15-30 days for my eyes to feel less dry. I've been using them for 3 months without any issues. When I stopped for a month, the dry eye pain returned, so I will be using them again.
