NCT ID NCT06911359
First seen Nov 25, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This study looks at whether taking ibuprofen (a common painkiller) changes how well dextrose prolotherapy (sugar-water injections) works for knee osteoarthritis. About 68 adults aged 45-75 with knee arthritis will get three injections over 8 weeks, plus either ibuprofen or a placebo pill. Researchers will track pain and knee function using questionnaires to see if the painkiller helps or hurts the treatment.
