I am not familiar with those medications but, I am familiar with "back pain / medication issues" & what I can add to your question is, sometimes it can take up to 2 weeks for side effects to appear. The only way to know for sure is, when you stopped ODEFFESY & the pain went away then it was that. Now that you started a new MED, keep track of the 2 weeks & if no pain after 2 weeks EVIPLERA is o.k. Good luck I hope for your sake you just pulled something that will heal as opposed to, medication causing irreversible damage that I suffer from. Good luck.
