Blinding description
A complete explanation was given to the patient about studying and comparing the therapeutic effect of drugs. The patient then received both ampoule arthromac plus (hyaluronic acid-chondrotin sulfate) and arthromac (hyaluronic acid). Then arthromac Plus was injected in the right knee and arthromac in the left knee. The patient did not have any information about the type of injectable drug in his knees. The appearance of both ampoules was identical (milky). During the study, only a physician was aware of the type of injected drug on the knees and information was collected by the same physician. The other person, including the patient himself and the nurse and the medical staff, did not know the type of injected drug on the knees.
