The medicines you have mentioned works only in some cases of osteoarthritis of knee. This depends on the grade of osteoarthritis seen clinically and on xrays of the knee. Better is to go with the specific physiotherapy protocols made for patients of knee pain. Medicines have a limited role in cases of osteoarthritis. Consult some good orthopaedic surgeon who can really guide you about the management protocol for osteoarthritis/knee pain.
