The effect of niacinamide on osteoarthritis: a pilot study.

Jonas WB, Rapoza CP, Blair WF.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:

To evaluate the effect of niacinamide, on selected parameters of osteoarthritis using a double-blind, placebo controlled study design.

CONCLUSION:

This study indicates that niacinamide may have a role in the treatment of osteoarthritis. Niacinamide improved the global impact of osteoarthritis, improved joint flexibility, reduced inflammation, and allowed for reduction in standard anti-inflammatory medications when compared to placebo. More extensive evaluation of niacinamide in arthritis is warranted.
