Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is one of the most commonly used ways to change existing guidelines for the treatment of certain diseases or conditions. New insights, new critical considerations of numerous publications, supporting new reflections and evidence on the use of certain drugs for the treatment of well-defined diseases. Thus, new knowledge about the effectiveness and therapeutic possibilities of crystalline glucosamine sulphate in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) became the reason for a possible supplement to the existing guidelines for the treatment of OA, those of the Croatian Society of Rheumatology from 2011. and the Croatian Society for Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine of the Croatian Medical Association from 2016.
