Hospitalist resources and more. There was an article written in
April about a study on a new alternative medicine from Boswellia
serrata extract (BSE) that’s shown to be effective in
osteoarthritis patients. Boswellia was compared with Valdecoxib,
a COX-2 inhibitor. Both treatments were shown to be effective,
but the effects did not persist in Valdecoxib patients after
their drug therapy ended. They did, however, in BSE patients.
Side effects of BSE have yet to be extensively tested in humans,
but studies have shown that, unlike NSAIDs, BSE does not result
in gastrointestinal irritation or ulceration.Elizabeth
