Patient received a maximum dally dose of 600 mg gabapentine or 400 mg pregabalin or 1 00 mg topiramate along with 300 mg aceclofenac Results: Mean baselineVAS was 69.6 mm (29.4-95.2) on a scale of 0-100mm.120 patients were included in the available case analysis & 30 patients in the per protocol analysis. The mean score was 6mm longer for gabapentine than for pregabalin & topiramate in the available case analysis & 5.6 mm in the per protocol analysis.
