Depending on which form of Arthritis you are suffering from you would have to look at general analgesics (pain killers) or non steroidal anti inflammatory, onto steroidal anti inflammatory and finally disease modifying drugs that prevent the immune system from bringing about the inflammation that is causing the pain and damage.
