example 1

Treatment of Arthritis with a CMO Compound and a Tetracycline Compound

[0055] A middle-aged female who suffered from knee arthritis and did not respond well to CMO therapy. NSAID drugs gave some relief, but pain was still severe. NSAID therapy was halted and tetracycline therapy was added. Rapid and effective symptomatic control was obtained. When tetracycline or CMO treatment was discontinued, symptoms worsened despite increase in dose of the remaining agent. Maximum relief was obtained with a combination of a tetracycline compound and a CMO compound.

example 2

Treatment of Arthritis with a CMO Compound and Doxycycline

[0056] A femal senior citizen who suffered from ankle and knee arthritis pain obtained no or minimal relief with CMO therapy. Doxycycline was added with excellent results noted. Symptoms returned when CMO compound or doxycycline was discontinued.

example 3

Treatment of Arthritis with a CMO Compound and Doxycycline

[0057] Doxycycline therapy was used for treatment of a middle aged male suffering from bilateral hip arthritis and experiencing severe pain despite increasing doses of NSAIDs. Rapid relief of pain to a more acceptable level was obtained with the addition of doxycycline but gastrointestinal upset was problematic. Cox-2 inhibitors were substituted for the NSAID agents with better results. However, over time, it was necessary to increase the doses of both agents to two to three times the initial dose in order to maintain adequate symptomatic relief. Side effects noted at that time included dizziness, nausea and abdominal pain. A CMO compound was added and the dosage of the other agents decreased to initial levels. The side effects disappeared and improved symptomatic relief was noted. The Cox-2 agent was discontinued with no increase in severity of symptoms. Attempts to discontinue doxycycline were unsuccessful, with symptoms i...
