To be used in cats and dogs to treat primary and secondary inflammatory arthritis and other inflammatory processes of joints, such as tendonitis, synovitis and non-infectious arthritis.
Used to treat chondropathies, hydrarthrosis and osteoarthritis. It has joint anti-inflammatory properties and it functions as an adjuvant to promote fracture healing. It aids articular cartilage regeneration: By stimulating the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans.
It has a chondropotective effect: When administered orally, CS has a chondroprotective effect: it stimulates the synthesis of proteoglycans and collagen by chondrocytes, it normalizes synovial fluid and increases its viscosity. It also inhibits cartilage-degrading enzymes.
Combination therapy with NSAIDs: Synergy in the treatment of some types of acute pain. Since the anti-inflammatory activity of glucosamine is different from that of the NSAIDs, it is possible that the combined action of both reduces the dose of NSAIDs required to produce an anti-exudative effect.
