Question

Does Placentrex help in ankloysis spondilytis? It seems to be working for many people in India?

Answer 1

Placentrex is the brand name of extract of human placenta. It is illegal to be used in the Canada, USA, Europe and Australia. Also, there are no clinical studies done in India to find out the benefits, adverse effects and any other related issues related to Placentrex.

Usually, Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS; also known as Bechterew's disease; Bechterew syndrome; Marie Strümpell disease / Marie Struempell disease / Spondyloarthritis) is treated by Anti-inflammatory drugs, Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and/or Antagonists. Surgery (for severe cases) and Physical therapy are also available.

Good Luck !
