Pharmacy Review: Osteoarthritis: The Pharmacist's Perspective

Rebecca Prevost, PharmD

Rebecca.Prevost{at}FLHOSP.org

A wide variety of treatment options are available for osteoarthritis pain relief. The pharmacist can serve as a source of information within his or her area of expertise, addressing controversies such as nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs versus acetaminophen, glucosamine-chondroitin, topical therapies, and herbals. Patients should be encouraged to use pain scales and diaries as they try different therapies.

Key Words: acetaminophen • NSAIDs • glucosamine • alcohol
