Reviews about Target T

The most popular forms of Zeel T are ointment and injection solution. Reviews of Target T ointment, as well as reviews of Target T injections, are overwhelmingly positive.

Many patients note a significant improvement in the condition of their joints and other problem areas of the musculoskeletal system, especially when using the ointment and solution in combination.

Among the negative aspects of treatment, the most discussed is the injection procedure, which, when the solution is administered intra-articularly, paravertebrally or periarticularly, is actually somewhat painful. Reviews about the tablets are not so numerous, but in 90% of cases they are also positive.

Let us remember that homeopathic medicines require a continuous course of therapy, and visible improvement in the condition is not observed as quickly as when using traditional medicines. But due to the virtual absence of side effects and a fairly long-lasting effect, these drugs have recently become increasingly popular.

Degenerative-dystrophic diseases of the joints and spine rank first in prevalence among all diseases of the musculoskeletal system [16]. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative-dystrophic disease of the joints, characterized by primary damage to the articular cartilage and further involvement in the process of the subchondral bone and surrounding soft tissues (joint capsule, ligaments, synovium). OA (arthrosis) accounts for 60–70% of all joint diseases; 10–12% of the population suffers from arthrosis. The incidence of diseases increases with age. Thus, after 50 years, arthrosis occurs in 27.1%, and after 70 years – in 90% of the population. In recent years, there has been a pronounced “rejuvenation” of the disease. A survey of 3660 respondents over 40 years of age showed that more than half of them (71%) suffer from joint pain at the age of 40–49 years, 52.3% report joint pain, and even in 20-year-olds they occur in 4% of cases [29 ].

Despite the huge number of studies devoted to the treatment of arthrosis, according to a number of authors, for the majority (up to 75%) of patients, treatment does not bring significant relief and their quality of life remains unsatisfactory [6]. In everyday practice, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are most widely used for the relief of pain and inflammation. When treating OA with drugs, it is necessary to take into account that we are talking mainly about long-term use of drugs, more often in older patients of age groups. In addition, simultaneous use of several drugs increases the risk of side effects by 3.5 times [35].

The side effects of NSAIDs are well known. They are most common with long-term use and are most often associated with damage to the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and impaired renal function. The following symptoms from the gastrointestinal tract are noted when using NSAIDs: dyspepsia - up to 50% of cases, stomach ulcer - 15%, duodenal ulcer - 11%, severe damage to the digestive tract - more than 2%; 25% of all bleeding cases in patients over 60 years of age are caused by taking NSAIDs [35]. According to other data, with long-term use of these drugs, 70% of patients develop damage to the gastric mucosa, 15–30% develop gastric ulcers, 5% experience bleeding and perforation, and 0.17% of patients die from complications. 11 thousand hospitalizations per year are associated with the use of NVPS [35]. Despite preventive measures, the frequency of hospitalizations per year due to complications of therapy (bleeding, ulcers, perforation) is 10.7 thousand in Germany, 12 thousand in the UK, and 70 thousand cases in the USA. Every year, 1100–2200 people die from NVPS in Germany, 4000 in the UK, and 16 thousand patients in the USA. Similar effects are also characteristic of a new class of NSAIDs—cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors [29]. It is believed that the safety of COX-2 inhibitors from the digestive tract is exaggerated [35], so the search for an alternative to NSAIDs remains one of the urgent tasks in the treatment of OA.

Goal T is a multicomponent preparation that includes minerals, plant and biological ingredients. It has chondroprotective and chondrostimulating, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, restorative and immunostimulating effects. The drug promotes the production of synovial fluid, thereby improving the functional characteristics of the joint and metabolic processes in the cartilage. Purpose T is available (Baden-Baden, Germany) in the form of injection solution, sublingual tablets and ointment. The company recommends simultaneous or sequential use of all three dosage forms of the drug.

Treatment with the drug Tzel T refers to pathogenetic therapy, because not only has an anti-inflammatory effect, but is also aimed at correcting the mechanisms of pathology. Thus, organ components ensure the restoration of cartilage tissue, plant ingredients have a complex anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect, sulfur and silica hydride are involved in the metabolism of cartilage, and biocatalysts activate cellular respiration and redox processes in tissues, thereby improving their regeneration and normalizing metabolism.

It has been experimentally proven that Cel T contains flavonoids known for their antioxidant properties [37]. The components of the drug influence the release of interleukin-6 (IL-6) by macrophages, which plays a leading role in the development of chronic inflammation and angiogenesis. In an animal experiment, it was shown that treatment with Cel T for induced arthrosis resulted in less cartilage erosion than in the control group [42]. At the same time, the level of vascularization of the deep layers of cartilage was many times lower than in the comparison group. It has been emphasized that Cel T has the ability to inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor [30, 31].

One of the most important issues in the treatment of OA is the effect of drugs on the morphofunctional state of articular cartilage. To assess the condition of joint cartilage, X-ray diffraction and birefringence methods are used [33, 38]. With their help, the morphofunctional state of articular cartilage is assessed in the treatment of stage 1–4 gonarthrosis using intra-articular administration of the drug Tzel T 1–2 times a week (treatment duration is up to 3 months). When examining biopsy material (articular cartilage) taken before and after the end of the course of treatment with Cel T, a reduction in erosion and a decrease in the degree of mineralization are clearly visible; calcium phosphate tubercles and stalked bodies were reduced or absent altogether. The peaks indicating sclerosis of the cartilage also disappeared, which indicated revitalization of the articular cartilage.

The conducted studies revealed a positive effect of therapy on the morphofunctional state of articular cartilage. This was especially noticeable in the reduction of erosion, extensive new formation of integumentary cartilage, and the presence of interference inherent in cartilage in the stage of active regeneration [3].

Intra-articular administration of the drug Cel T is widespread and has been well reflected in the scientific literature [34, 41]. At the same time, anti-inflammatory, analgesic effects, improvement of the metabolism of the synovial membrane and the composition of the synovial fluid have been proven, which has a beneficial effect on cartilage regeneration [41].

In a study involving 900 patients, the drug Cel T was administered together with the drug Traumeel S in a 1:1 ratio intra- or periarticularly, the full course was 10 injections over 2 weeks (5 injections per week) [23]. It should be noted that Tzel T is indicated for degenerative changes, and Traumeel S for inflammation. In patients with initial manifestations of OA (stage 1), after 2-3 injections in 80% of cases, pain significantly decreased or disappeared altogether. The duration of remission in 73% of patients was a year. In 27% of cases, due to the appearance of pain after 6 months, the drug was administered intramuscularly 2 times a week (10 injections in total), as a result of which a positive effect was achieved.

In patients with grade 2 OA, after 4–5 injections, a sharp exacerbation of the pain syndrome was noted. After the 7–8th injection, the pain disappeared, the distance traveled increased 5–6 times. All patients with arthrosis of the 2nd degree received a repeat course after 6 months with additional rubbing of Cel T ointment and subsequent preventive treatment annually.

In case of OA of the 3rd degree, it was only possible to reduce pain to some extent and increase mobility; in all cases, injection therapy was combined with physical methods of treatment. Thus, the high effectiveness of injection therapy with Cel T and Traumeel S for OA of the 1st and 2nd degrees has been proven.

O.I. comes to the same opinion. Rybachuk, S.I. Gerasimenko et al. Tzel T was administered 2 times a week for grade 1-2 OA intra-articularly or periarticularly for gonarthrosis, intraarticularly for coxarthrosis and periarticularly for arthrosis of the subtalar joint. The duration of treatment was 6–8 weeks.

By the end of the first week there was a significant improvement, and by the end of the course there was clinical remission, which lasted more than six months.

In 5 cases, the course of treatment was repeated after 6 months due to exacerbation of the disease.

The authors came to the conclusion that intra-articular or periarticular administration of Tzel T in the early stages of degenerative-dystrophic joint lesions significantly improves the condition of patients, helps restore the disturbed functional balance in cartilage by activating anabolic and suppressing catabolic processes.

The dosage of the drug Tzel T for intra-articular injections ranges from 1 ampoule for arthrosis of the 1st degree to 2 for arthrosis of the 2nd and 3rd degrees, 1-2 times a week. However, some authors recommend up to 5 injections per week [23]. Vast clinical material has proven the high efficiency and safety of intra-articular injections Goal T. Nevertheless, the desire to get away from intra-articular injections prompted the authors to develop methods for periarticular administration of the drug.

Thus, B. Potrafki [18] presents the results of observation of 350 patients with gonarthrosis of varying degrees of severity, who were prescribed periarticular injections for 12 weeks. Injections were made into painful points of the periarticular bursa and into the places of attachment of ligaments. Dosages were 1 ampoule for mild arthrosis, 2 ampoules 2 times a week for moderate and severe arthrosis.

The patients' condition was assessed based on clinical testing of joint function and pain. No side effects were noted. All patients tolerated periarticular injections well, treatment results were assessed as very good, and drug tolerability was excellent. The author came to the conclusion that periarticular injections of Cel T are comparable in effectiveness to intra-articular injections, and there is no risk of joint infection. Other authors provide similar data on the effectiveness of periarticular injections [8, 13, 23, 49].

Very often, injections of Cel T are combined with Traumeel S [10, 22, 23, 39]. At the same time, the authors do not contrast the effect of these drugs, noting that Traumeel S is recommended to be prescribed for injuries and acute inflammation, and Target T is recommended for degenerative changes, when it is especially effective [27].

Researchers note that due to the different types of effects on the mechanisms of acute and chronic inflammation inherent in degenerative diseases, the combined use of Tzel T and Traumeel S is considered quite justified: Tzel T - for long-term treatment, Traumeel S - at the onset of the disease and during its exacerbation [40] . At the same time, it is emphasized again and again that both drugs have an excellent tolerability profile.

The effectiveness of motor therapy with Tzel T tablets is confirmed by the results of numerous studies: the drug is prescribed in a dose of 1 to 3 per day, depending on the clinical manifestations of OA. The duration of treatment ranges from 6 to 10 weeks or more [32]. With the duration of treatment, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects increase. The best results were obtained in the treatment of grade 1–2 OA [39].

Of particular interest are the results of a multicenter examination of 498 patients with degenerative joint diseases with the inclusion of Cel T ointment in therapy [4]. The most common indication for the use of the ointment was monoarthrosis; in addition, it was prescribed for poly-, spondyloarthrosis and other degenerative diseases of the joints. Depending on the manifestations of a specific pathology, additional drug and non-drug therapy was prescribed. Most often, ointments were used without a bandage, sometimes with a bandage. In some cases it was used in combination with iontophoresis. The frequency of rubbing the ointment ranged from 1 to 5 times a day, more often – 3, less often – 5 times. In the vast majority (75.9%) of cases, the ointment was used in the form of motor therapy, in 12.1% it was combined with Cel T injections, in 8.8% with taking Cel T tablets. All three forms of the drug were used simultaneously in 3.2% cases. All patients received non-drug therapy: exercise therapy (physical therapy), cryo-, electrotherapy, massage, etc. In some cases, drug therapy with anti-inflammatory drugs, local analgesics, corticosteroids, etc. was additionally prescribed.

Already by the 3rd day of treatment, the total pain index decreased noticeably; from days 3–10, a gradual decrease in the total pain index was observed, which persisted until the end of the observation period (more than a month). During therapy, a significant improvement in the patients' condition was noted: cessation of pain at night and when moving. The best results were obtained in the treatment of monoarthrosis. But in other degenerative diseases, a decrease in the pain index was noted already in the first days of using the ointment, and subsequently the pain gradually decreased until the end of the study.

Analysis of observations showed that the effectiveness of therapy with ointment and ointment in combination with other forms of Cel T or other options for drug therapy did not differ from each other. At the same time, the reduction in pain intensity in patients who additionally received physiotherapeutic treatment (PTT) occurred faster. Moreover, the effect of FTL manifested itself only from the second week of treatment. The therapeutic effect of Cel T ointment was observed in 92.6% of cases, incl. 75.1% were rated “good” or “very good.”

Another study compares the effectiveness of using Cel T ointment using iontophoresis and intra-articular administration of the drug. Based on the data obtained, the authors come to the conclusion that both routes of administration of the drug are highly effective, noting a long-lasting analgesic effect [6]. Tolerability of the ointment is “good” in 95.6% of cases [4].

As already noted, one of the most important areas of conservative therapy for degenerative diseases remains the search for an alternative to the use of NSAIDs. Numerous studies have been conducted on the comparative effectiveness of treatment of rheumatic joint diseases with Zel T and NSAIDs [35]. In all studies, the WOMAC index was used as a comparison criterion, with the help of which the advantages of Zel T were confirmed. This applies to comparisons with both diclofenac and COX-2 inhibitors. No side effects from the Cel T drug were noted in any case.

Let us present the results of one of these numerous studies [32]. 592 patients with grade 1–2 gonarthrosis were observed, 323 of them received Cel T for 6 to 10 weeks in an amount of 1 to 3 tablets per day. In the comparison group, 269 patients received COX-2 inhibitors celecoxib 100–200 mg or rofecoxib 12.5–25.0 mg. Both groups were comparable in the severity of clinical manifestations.

After 4 weeks, a significant decrease in symptoms was noted in both groups. The improvement in the condition of patients in the control group was somewhat more pronounced, which is explained by the rapid effect of COX-2 inhibitors; after another 2 weeks, the treatment results in both groups were absolutely identical.

The results on the WOMAC scale coincided with this. After 4 weeks, COX-2 inhibitors had a greater effect on pain, but after 6 weeks of treatment, the results were similar in both groups.

Significant differences were noted regarding drug tolerability. In 90.5% of cases, the tolerability of Target T was assessed as “excellent”. When treated with COX-2 inhibitors, tolerability was “excellent” on the part of 74% of patients. There were no side effects during treatment with Cel T. During the use of COX-2 inhibitors, they were noted in 3 cases and were characterized by diarrhea with vomiting, dizziness and nonspecific manifestations of the gastrointestinal tract.

One of the advantages of Goal T is the following: it can be successfully used in combination with traditional treatment of OA [14]. A comparative assessment of the effectiveness of treatment of gonarthrosis using the traditional method was carried out, namely: with the use of NSAIDs (diclofenac 25 mg 3 times a day); Nikoshpana, 1 tablet 3 times a day; vitamins, compresses with dimexide, FTL (in the comparison group) with the main group, which was added to the treatment with Target T, 1 tablet 3 times a day. The total duration of treatment in groups was 4–5 weeks. Initially, the pain syndrome was approximately the same in both groups (65.3 VAS in the control group and 63.3 VAS in the main group). By the end of treatment in the Cel T group, pain was almost 2 times less than in the comparison group (24.0 and 41.4, respectively). A year after treatment in the control group, pain increased to 56, while after combining traditional treatment with Target T, the pain syndrome changed virtually little [5, 27].

When traditional complex treatment was combined with the drug Cel T, there was a significantly more pronounced decrease in the severity of synovitis than in the control group, and the clinical effect persisted throughout the entire observation period. According to ultrasound examination (ultrasound), in contrast to the control group, there was a significant increase in the number of joints with a normal synovial membrane and a decrease in tendivitis of all muscle tendons.

The use of the drug Cel T did not lead to an increase in the side effects of treatment [14, 15]. Using the drug Tzel T together with NSAIDs allows you to reduce the dose of the latter and reduce their negative impact on the body.

The study of economic costs in the treatment of NSAIDs with complications from their use, on the one hand, and Goal T, on the other, showed that the transition to therapy with the latter can contribute to significant savings in financial resources. From a medical point of view, such a change is completely justified for mild to moderate severity of arthrosis, especially taking into account the duration of therapy, when the absence of side effects comes to the fore [35].

Another study compared chondroprotective therapy for OA using chondroitin sulfate and Cel T in combination with NSAIDs if necessary [15]. Treatment results in all groups were approximately the same. At the same time, the costs of treatment with chondroprotectors significantly exceeded the cost of therapy with the drug Tzel T. The author came to the conclusion that from a clinical and economic point of view, a combination of a course of treatment, including nimesulide and Tzel T, is advisable.

Thus, the drug Tsel T, either in the form of motor therapy or in combination with other drugs, appears to be effective for OA of any etiology and any location. The predominance of publications on the treatment of arthrosis of the knee and hip joints is explained primarily by the frequency of damage to these joints and the particular severity of clinical manifestations. It is the knee and hip joints that are the most disabling localization of OA. Due to gonarthrosis, 10% of people over 55 years of age lose their ability to work [39]. The drug is effective for both primary and secondary arthrosis, regardless of the number of affected joints. The best results were obtained with OA of 1–2 degrees. The best effect of using ointments is achieved in the treatment of monoarthrosis.

Among degenerative lesions, periarthropathic shoulder syndrome occupies a significant place. The process is most often associated with spinal osteochondrosis. Target T is usually used in chronic cases [17, 27]. In the study, the drug was administered 2 times a week, 1-2 ampoules, perifocally and into trigger zones; to enhance the effect, Cel T was additionally prescribed in the form of tablets and ointments. FTL and exercise therapy were also used. Efficacy was assessed 2–4–6 weeks after the start of treatment. The tolerability of Target T was assessed as good, and the high therapeutic efficacy of the drug in the treatment of periarthropathic shoulder syndrome was proven [9, 17].

Thus, the drug Cel T is widely used for the treatment of degenerative diseases of the musculoskeletal system. All authors noted its high tolerability. Not a single case of a side effect of the drug has been described.

Target T has good anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, which allows us to recommend it as a complete alternative to NSAIDs. This is especially important with long-term use of the drug, when taking NSAIDs causes significant side effects. If necessary, Purpose T can be used in conjunction with COX-2 inhibitors, which reduces the likelihood of the latter having a negative effect on the body. However, the main significance of Goal T is that it additionally has chondroprotective and chondrostimulating effects, activates chondrocytes, increases the hydrophilicity of cartilage and nucleus pulposus, thereby ensuring their resistance to stress. The drug promotes the production of normal synovial fluid, thereby improving friction characteristics in the joint and metabolic processes in cartilage, and has an immunostimulating effect. The drug affects the pathogenesis of the disease and is basic in the treatment of degenerative lesions. The drug is used in the form of intramuscular, intraarticular, periarticular, paravertebral injections, homeosiniatry (introduction into biologically active points), mesoinfiltration (subdermal injections into painful points), in the form of tablets and ointments.

The advantages of Goal T treatment include the following: it can be carried out both in a hospital and on an outpatient basis. Depending on the objectives, Target T can be combined with other antihomotoxic agents and other drugs.

Goal T can be successfully used in the practice of not only an orthopedic traumatologist, but also a surgeon, neurologist, therapist, arthrologist and rheumatologist.
