Safety and Efficacy Study of Pregabalin in Fibromyalgia

A Six-Month, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Durability of Effect Study of Pregabalin for Pain Associated With Fibromyalgia

The purpose of this research study of pregabalin and fibromyalgia is to see if 1. pregabalin reduces the pain of fibromyalgia and if this effect lasts for six months and 2. to see if different dosages work better (reduce pain and mild to no side effects) for different people.
