Abstract
This paper investigates prescription drug and medical care use with respect to stages of fibromyalgia diagnosis. Established fibromyalgia patients use more medical resources and have higher rates of concomitant medication use than newly diagnosed fibromyalgia patients. Findings can help educate providers regarding optimal drug treatment patterns in this population.
