Two patients tested positive for antinuclear antibodies and 1 of these, diagnosed with systemic lupus, also tested positive for anti-Ro antibodies. Of all the patients treated, only 3 showed a mild improvement. The remaining patients showed no response to treatment. In the case series presented here, response was limited, as only 3 out of 10 patients reported a mild improvement in symptoms. Although this study cannot provide definitive conclusions, the results would seem to reject the hypothesis of the usefulness of a-lipoic acid in the treatment of BMS, as indicated in the systematic review published by the Cochrane library in 2005.2 Rigorous clinical trials would therefore be needed to demonstrate whether or not this treatment is effective.
