Abstract
The potential chondrotoxicity of drugs is very difficult to appreciate because of the difficulties involved in evaluating the evolution of c artilage in human beings. This article attempts to summarize the data from the literature concerning the hypothetical chondrotoxicity of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, fluoroquinolones, intra-articular injections of corticosteroids, and other drugs.
