Summary: | Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease primarily characterized by
articular cartilage damage. In Vietnam, osteoarthritis accounts
for a high percentage of musculoskeletal conditions, especially
affecting the knee joints. Recently, slow-acting anti-
osteoarthritis drugs, including glucosamine, chondroitin
sulfate, and diacerein, have been suggested as key
pharmacological options for treating this condition. However,
Vietnamese-language resources on these active ingredients
remain limited. This article provides a literature review on the
efficacy and safety of these drugs to enhance their effective use
in clinical practice. Results indicate that glucosamine and
chondroitin are both effective and safe for osteoarthritis
treatment, as demonstrated by the data analyzed in this study. |
