Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

The treatment leads to an increase in tissue nutrition, the ordering of microcirculation and inhibition of the replication of inflammatory mediators. Inclusion of Arthrofon in the treatment of degenerative inflammatory joint diseases leads to a reduction in the time of acute course of the disease, as well as to a reduction in the dosages of other drugs used in therapy (most commonly NSAIDs).

Reviews about Arthrofon

There is no unambiguous answer about the effectiveness and appropriateness of the administration of the drug Arthrofon. The comments of doctors using it in their practice were divided approximately equally.
Some people observe a more rapid improvement in the patient's condition with the appointment of Arthrofon in complex treatment, others prescribe the effectiveness of therapy for other drugs, and do not notice any changes in the course of the disease, with or without its use. Perhaps this depends on the individual characteristics of each individual patient, as well as on the placebo effect.
