Supplements used for low back pain include vitamins, minerals, herbal remedies, and other products. Research shows that most supplements are generally considered safe and studies have shown that supplements like devil’s claw and willow bark can be helpful for low back pain. Some doctors are concerned about supplements because they are not as well studied as medications and there have been reports of supplements being contaminated with other products. Supplements may sometimes interact badly with medications if you take both at the same time. Always tell your doctor or pharmacist about any supplements you are taking to make sure they are safe.
