The efficacy of high- and low-dose curcumin in knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Curcuminoids are also associated with better pain relief than NSAIDs; therefore, using curcuminoids as an adjunctive treatment in knee OA is recommended.PMID:34537344 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2021.102775
