Dear Working Class,
Although Triphasil is not available in Moscow, its equivalent, Triquilar, is readily available in many Russian pharmacies.
I cannot comment on homeopathic remedies for arthritis. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate have some beneficial results on arthritis in recent trials on humans. Both are available at some pharmacies in Moscow.
Hope this helps.
