The efficacy and safety of using Nise and Tolperisone in patients with acute low back pain was analyzed using a visual analogue pain scale (VAS), the Roland—Morris questionnaire, SPID, the clinical global impression (CGI), and a study of patient diary data. Results. A decrease in pain severity was noted according to the VAS scale, signs of an improvement in functional status were revealed according to the Roland—Morris questionnaire, and high treatment efficacy was revealed according to the patient and doctor according to the CGI questionnaire. Conclusion. The use of Nise and Tolperisone in patients with LBP is effective and safe.
