Abstract

While the effects of Withania somnifera on various disorders are being investigated by several clinical trials, the ones evaluated for this study provide insight on its potential in managing arthritis when given for a specific duration. Evidence shows a dosage of 6 gm in powder form or extracts in tablets, or 500 -1000 mg capsule consumed for a duration of 8 - 12 weeks may be useful in managing symptoms of arthritis in patients.
