pink panther	Herbal remedies promoted for the treatment of arthritis include, Ginger, Chinese Thunder God Vine, Willow bark extract, fever few, cat's claw and stinging Nettle. While there is some evidence that Ginger and Willow bark extract may relieve pain, these remedies contain chemicals that are similar to conventional non steroidal anti-inflammatory compounds (NSAIDs) like Naproxen (Aleve) and Ibuprofen (Advil). NSAIDs may cause inflammation of the stomach and intestines. Further, they can interfere with blood clotting and lead to fluid retention, causing problems for people with high blood pressure or heart failure. Chinese Thunder God Vine also relieves pain and inflammation, but chronic use may cause weakening of the immune system and bones (osteoporosis). there are also supplements; Supplements are also marketed over the counter to address rheumatologic symptoms. Again, however, patients would be well advised to consider the realities. S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), a naturally occurring chemical in the body, has been used in Europe for some time as a prescription drug for depression as well as a relief of arthritis pain and inflammation. While the role of its anti-depressant action in providing subjective relief from arthritis is unclear, there are other deterrents. SAMe is not efficiently absorbed into the body when taken by mouth nor are there any large, well-controlled studies of its effectiveness. Further, this very expensive supplement can cause gastrointestinal distress as well as reported incidents of extreme agitation. Like other unregulated products, many commercial preparations of SAMe do not contain the quantity of drug indicated on the label. Chondroitin sulfate and Glucosamine supplements are promoted separately, or in combination, for patients with degenerative arthritis (osteoarthritis). Some studies suggest that these products can relieve arthritis pain but other studies found no benefit. A recent trial that was supported by the National Institutes of Health found no clear evidence for relief of pain. As for the combination approach, no evidence supports Chondroitin plus Glucosamine as being more effective than Glucosamine taken alone, and product analyses by a consumer organization found more variability in Chondroitin than in Glucosamine preparations. That said, these products appear to be relatively safe, and may be worth considering for people who have severe pain despite conventional treatments. Fish oils that contain omega-3 fatty acids have been reported to relieve pain and joint tenderness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The benefits are modest and may take several months to appear. Side effects include gastrointestinal distress and a fishy odor to the breath. Those who consider fish oil should remember some fish oil supplements may contain high levels of mercury or Vitamin A. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
