Core Tip This manuscript highlights the comparative effectiveness of amitriptyline and duloxetine for chronic low back pain (CLBP). While amitriptyline provides rapid early pain relief, duloxetine offers more durable reduction with fewer side effects, making it preferable for sustained management. The study’s real-world approach, using robust statistical adjustments and patient-centered outcomes, emphasizes the importance of personalized treatment strategies in chronic pain. These findings support duloxetine as a promising option and underscore the need for further randomized trials to refine evidence-based guidelines for CLBP management.
