About Knee-Joint Tablet

Knee-Joint Tablet is used to reduce the pain of osteoarthritis (OA). Osteoarthritis is a chronic (lifelong) joint condition in which glucosamine sulfate (a chemical found in the human body, especially in joints) gets reduced.

Symptoms include pain, stiffness, inflammation of the joints, and reduced locomotion.
