Combined Neuromodulatory Interventions in Acute Experimental Pain: assessment of melatonin and non-invasive brain stimulation

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and melatonin can effectively treat pain. Given their potentially complementary mechanisms of action, their combination could have a synergistic effect. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that compared to the control condition and melatonin alone, tDCS comb...
