Like all treatments, complementary medicines can have benefits and side effects. Some complementary treatments and medicines may interact with your medicines. Not all complementary therapies and medicines have been well researched in arthritis. It’s important to check with your healthcare team if your complementary therapies and medicines are right for you.
In April 2023 we hosted a webinar with the SA Pharmacy Medicines Information Service about complementary medicines and arthritis. You can watch this below. If you have questions about complementary therapies and arthritis, you can call the SA Pharmacy Medicines Information Service on 1800 011 041 Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.
This webinar was made possible through funding from the Country SA Primary Health Network.
