NEIRA, ALEIDA e OLAYA, ANDRÉS. PHARMACOLOGIC MANAGEMENT OF OROFACIAL PAIN: REVIEW. rev.fac.med [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.1, pp.58-66. ISSN 0121-5256.
Orofacial pain in its acute and chronic phases, either of somatic etiology or associated with psychological conditions is of highly prevalence. Multiple pharmacological therapies are the first line of treatment, and the correct choice depends on the underlying pathology. This decision is not always easy because there is not unity in the diagnostic criteria used for its classification. Given the multiplicity of options, the objective of this review is to analyze the treatments described in the current scientific literature, in order to provide the elements to make an accurate decision in each specific case of orofacial pain.
