Summary

Given the poor pain and functional outcomes that persist beyond an Emergency Department (ED) visit for musculoskeletal low back pain (LBP), we propose a clinical trial to evaluate whether combining a benzodiazepine with an NSAID is more effective than nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) monotherapy for the treatment of acute, non-traumatic, non-radicular low back pain.
