Authors present a case-report of a 36-year-old patient with pain syndrome in the face region (craniomandibular dysfunction with occlusive disorders) involving pericranial muscles and shoulder girdle muscles. Thioctic acid was prescribed as a basic therapy, and relaxation tire, mimic gymnastics, post-isometric relaxation, vitamin and mineral complex were additionally used. Thioctic acid was prescribed according to the following scheme: stage I — intravenous injections of thioctic acid (600 mg/daily, 5 procedures, every other day); stage II — oral administration of the drug in the dose of 600 mg/daily for 3 months. A significant reduction of pain syndrome and the palpable tension of muscles were noted; the symmetric even muscle tone was revealed. This case-report demonstrates the high efficacy of thioctic acid in treatment of patients with craniomandibular disorders using the 2-stage scheme. There was a significant improvement of quality of life of the patients due to the additional use of vitamin and mineral complex and medical tools (relaxation tire) for treatment at all stages of pain formation.
