Savella or milnacipran (generic name) is an antidepressant that is also licensed for use in fibromyalgia. No studies have been carried out on the effectiveness of Savella in ME/CFS patients, although off-label use of psychiatric medications in ME/CFS has generally been ineffective.[1]
Theory[edit | edit source]
Evidence[edit | edit source]
Savella is an FDA-approved drug for fibromyalgia, with improvements in pain, sleep and more limited improvements in fatigue.
No clinical trials have been done for Savella/milnacipran in ME/CFS.
