CHONDROITIN belongs to the class of medicine called proteoglycan synthesis stimulators, primarily used to treat osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a joint condition in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage.
CHONDROITIN contains Chondroitin as an active ingredient, which is a nutritional supplement. Chondroitin restricts the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and destruction of cartilage in osteoarthritis. It also provides elasticity. This helps in the formation of cartilage and make the joints lubricated for better movement and flexibility.
CHONDROITIN may cause certain common side effects, such as headache, tiredness, nausea, abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhoea, and constipation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently. Take CHONDROITIN as suggested by your physician or dietician.
Discontinue taking CHONDROITIN and inform your doctor if you have any allergic reactions. Inform your doctor if you have impaired glucose tolerance, kidney or liver dysfunction, heart disease, or lung conditions. CHONDROITIN is not recommended for children younger than 18 years. Let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to be pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Include fish like salmon, trout, tuna, and sardines. These fishes are enriched with omega-3 fatty acids that contain the minimum level of a chemical called cytokines, which ramp up inflammation.
To achieve the best results, it is strongly recommended to remain physically active as much as your condition allows.
Adopting a healthy lifestyle coupled with a high-protein diet is the mainstay of managing arthritic conditions.
Osteoarthritis: Osteoarthritis is a joint condition in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage. It causes friction between the bones leading to wear and tear (damage) of the joint tissues. This disease can occur in any joint, but commonly affected areas of the body are hands, fingertips, knees, hips, spine, typically at the neck or lower back. The most common osteoarthritis symptoms include pain, tenderness (discomfort when pressing on the area with fingers), stiffness, and inflammation.
