Abstract
Italian rheumatologists and orthopedic surgeons are the specialists who most frequently use pharmacological treatment for OA. Nonpharmacological treatment is used commonly among both GPs and specialists but rarely as single therapy. Exercise and passive or active rehabilitation strategies are not frequently prescribed, although they are recommended by all the published guidelines.
