Hi Christine,
From the Q&A page of the Vet-Stem website:
Quote:
Do regenerative stem cells cure degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis)?
Because of the ongoing nature of arthritic changes, regenerative stem cells may not permanently stop the degenerative processes. However, intra-articular regenerative stem cell administration may provide long-term anti-inflammatory effects, decrease pain, stimulate regeneration of cartilage tissue that slows the degenerative processes, and initiate healing in chronic and acute injuries. Some cases will require periodic treatment with stored (banked) doses of cells.
As this statement suggests, for this type of use, the treatment would likely need to be repeated, perhaps as part of a yearly regimen. The nature of DJD/arthritis is that it just keeps progressing - the stem cells could dramatically help ease pain and increase mobility for a period, but it won't "cure" the problem.
If you read up on my previous posts (6th post up there) you will see that we LOVED the results! We used it for elbows and plan on doing it again as necessary.
Feel free to ask any questions!!!
