Claims for opioids, anticonvulsants and myorelaxants for non-specific low back pain showed significant upward changes between 1997 and 2018 in Québec, in contrast to antidepressants. These temporal variations in claims were different for each group of drugs, with a greater variation for anticonvulsants.
