It is better to follow one system of Medicine rather than combining multiple systems . Each drug may. react with each other and nullify or produce fresh side effects .In arthritic conditions Physical exercises ,yoga and respiratory exercises will also help to minimise the pain Even if a gap is there on consuming the medicines will be there in the body for a long time
