초록

Objective : To compare the efficacy and safety of S-adenosyl-methionine (SAMe) and ibuprofen in the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods : Sixty patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) were enrolled in this study. Patients received a daily oral dose of 1200mg of SAMe and 1200mg of ibuprofen for 4 weeks Treatment efficacy was evaluated with clinical parameters as Lequesne's functional index and visual analog scale (VAS) of pain. Adverse effects were monitored from patient interviews and blood sampling. Results: The treatment efficacy evaluated by clinical parameters was not different in both groups. Gastrointestinal adverse effects were more frequently observed in ibuprofen group than in SAMe. Conclusion : SAMe was equally effective to ibuprofen in efficacy and better tolerated in short term treatment of patients with knee OA.
