Do antidepressants ease chronic pain?

Antidepressants treat depression and other mental conditions. But some people say the drugs ease physical aches, too. The evidence, however, is sobering.
Their review of the results was sobering: The trials on the effect of antidepressants on chronic pain appeared so small, and yielded such poor data across the trials, that they only felt confident about the efficacy of a single one of the 27 antidepressants that were tested, duloxetine.
My Dr said I could try different anti depressants for their anti inflammatory functions.
