Medications
There are many medications and drugs available to deal with osteoarthritis. These can range from injectables and lotions to syrups and pills. In general, there are often four medical options for this condition. Firstly, analgesics like opioids or acetaminophen are used to ease the pain. NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin are effective in reducing inflammatory activities. Similarly, corticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory options that can be injected or taken orally. Lastly, hyaluronic acid can work as a lubricant or shock absorber. Consult your doctor to choose the best option for your condition. [9]
