The role of chondroprotectors in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis
The data of the dynamic analysis of some clinical and immunological indicators in patients with psoriatic arthritis during the course of complex basic treatment is presented in the article. We observed 66 patients with psoriatic arthritis in age from 18 to 67 years. A more pronounced decrease in clinical and immunological parameters was revealed in patients who received methotrexate and glucosamine sulfate for complex treatment. This scheme of complex treatment allowed to reduce the negative impact of methotrexate on hyaline cartilage.
