Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of sodium hyaluronate combined with glucosamine in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:1 220 patients with knee osteoarthritis were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The patients in control group were treated with Sodium hyaluronate injection alone,once a week;while the ob-servation group was additionally and orally treated with Glucosamine hydrochloride capsules two tablets,three times a day. The course of treatment was 5 weeks in both groups. The relevant physicotherapeutics and oral medication in the treatment of the dis-ease should be stopped. The clinic efficacy,visual analog scale(VAS)and lysholm knee score before and after treatment,and inci-dence of adverse reaction were observed. RESULTS:Total effective rate of observation group was significantly higher than control group,with statistically significant difference(P<0.05). After treatment,VAS and lysholm knee scores in both groups were signifi-cantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,with significant differences(P<0.05). There were no severe adverse reactions during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Sodium hyaluronate combined with glucosamine has more signifi-cant clinical efficacy in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis than sodium hyaluronate alone,with good safety.
