hi
The medicines are alright for osteoarthritis.I would suggest prilosec OTC on empty stomach in the morning if your doctor agrees as it checks acidity related to pain medication often or your doctor may prescribe FDA approved prescription medicine for acidity .precaution can be taking medicines after meals only.Re-evaluation of response once fortnightly and once a month check of serum creatinine,GFR for kidney function,CBC blood test for any effects on blood cells.
As soon as pain and swelling/inflamation lessen modification of doses.Physical therapy,mild exercises of joints, hot fomentation
