GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN is a combination medicine 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. It causes friction between the bones leading to wear and tear (damage) of the joint tissues. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, inflammation, and reduced locomotion. GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN relieves pain, thereby improving joint function and restoring quality of life. It also increases the cushioning and lubrication of joints.
GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN contains Glucosamine and Chondroitin. Glucosamine is used by the body to produce various chemicals responsible for building ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the thick fluid surrounding joints. Chondroitin restricts the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and destruction of cartilage in osteoarthritis. It also provides elasticity. Both in combination help in the formation of cartilage (the soft tissue that cushions the joints) and make the joints lubricated for better movement and flexibility.
Take GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN as prescribed by your doctor. You are suggested to take GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN for as long as your doctor has prescribed based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as headache, tiredness, nausea, abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhoea, constipation, and wind. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Avoid taking GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN if you are allergic to any of its components. Inform your doctor if you have impaired glucose tolerance, kidney or liver dysfunction, heart (cardiovascular) disease, or asthma. GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN is not recommended for children younger than 18 years. Consult with your doctor if you have ever had blood clots or circulation problems in your legs, if you are pregnant, planning to be pregnant, or breastfeeding. People with joint infection or skin disease in the affected area should consult a doctor before taking GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN.
Osteoarthritis
GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN has anti-inflammatory (reduce pain and inflammation) properties and relieves pain, swelling, and other symptoms associated with osteoarthritis. GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN compromises two medicines, namely Glucosamine and Chondroitin. Glucosamine is used by the body to produce various chemicals responsible for building ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the thick fluid surrounding joints. Chondroitin restricts the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and destruction of cartilage. It also provides elasticity. Both in combination help in the formation of cartilage (the soft tissue that cushions the joints) and make the joints lubricated for better movement and flexibility. GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN relieves pain, thereby improving joint function and helping an individual restore their quality of life. It also increases the cushioning and lubrication of joints.
Avoid taking GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN if you are allergic to any of the components. Inform your doctor if you have impaired glucose tolerance, kidney or liver dysfunction, heart (cardiovascular) disease, asthma, or if you are allergic to shellfish. GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN is not recommended for children younger than 18 years. Consult with your doctor if you have ever had blood clots or circulation problems in your legs, if you are pregnant, planning to be pregnant, or breastfeeding. People with joint infection or skin disease in the affected area should consult a doctor before taking GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN.
