Hello, I would like a medical consultation for a 60-year-old woman. She suffers from osteoarthritis (cartilage degeneration) with chronic lower back pain. Medical history: Blood pressure is generally stable She has glaucoma and uses eye drops regularly for life No diabetes No known drug allergies We are considering the following medications: Dorofen (Glucosamine + Chondroitin) Diacerein Questions: Which medication is safer and more suitable for her condition? Can Dorofen affect intraocular pressure? What is the safest option to relieve pain without affecting blood pressure or glaucoma? Thank you.
