Platelet Rich Plasma?

Is anyone aware of PLP used as an RA treatment?

  1. Hi . I can't personally speak on this, but our contributor Amanda wrote this article on the topic several years ago: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/platelet-rich-plasma-therapy. I can also tell you that in looking for research the articles also seem to be from multiple years ago, such as here: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7021456/. I don't know if there is a reason there doesn't seem to be anything more recent. This might be a good question for a rheumatologist. Best, Richard (Team Member)


    1. Thanks much. Interesting articles. I will try to investigate this further and attempt to see if there are any clinical trials anywhere. I'm surprised there is not much out there. Thanks again.
