Journal Title: Біль. Суглоби. Хребет - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a polyethiologic disease, the emergence and development of which is determined by a number of genetic, mechanical, hormonal and metabolic factors that violate the stability of hyaline cartilage and its physiological regeneration under the influence of loading. A characteristic feature is the destruction of articular cartilage and bone adjacent to it, pain, synovitis, violation or restriction of functional activity of the joints. Osteoarthritis pharmacotherapy includes analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and symptomatic slow acting drugs that modify cartilage structure (glucosamine, chondroitin, etc.).
