Abstract

Musculoskeletal system disorders are widespread and have negative social and economic impacts: influence labor efficiency, require expensive treatment, result in temporary disability and permanent disablement. Most common musculoskeletal system disorders include cervicalgia and lower back pain (LBP). From 65 to 90% of population with have LBP at a certain point of life. In most cases (up to 80-90%) back pain is non-specific and is associated with muscular-ligamentous apparatus dysfunction. The following risk factors of LBP are described: psychological, social, physical, and vitamins and minerals deficiency. The most common medications for non-specific LBP include non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, and vitamin B complex. Among vitamins special attention is given to vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamine) that has a direct and indirect analgesic. Neuromultivit is a combined medication on the Russian market that includes vitamins B1 (thiamine hydrochloride 100 mg), B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride 100 mg), and B12 (cyanocobalamine 1 mg) in a 2 ml ampule. Its pharmacological effects include neurotrophic, regenerative, antioxidant, neuromodulatory, and antalgesic effects.
