Results At 8 weeks after treatment initiation, knee pain
VAS scores were significantly lower in the Theracurmin
group than in the placebo group, except in the patients with
initial VAS scores of 0.15 or less. Theracurmin lowered
the celecoxib dependence significantly more than placebo.
No major side effects were observed with Theracurmin
treatment.
Conclusion Theracurmin shows modest potential for the
treatment of human knee osteoarthritis.
