Release form and composition of the drug

The drug is available in the form of small oval-shaped tablets with a neutral odor and taste . They are packaged in polyethylene bottles. Each bottle can contain 90 tablets, which are also accompanied by instructions for use.

The bottle and instructions can be placed in a cardboard box. The pharmacological agent contains several active ingredients with various therapeutic properties. The main therapeutic effect is achieved due to the presence of glucosamine and chondroitin, as well as methylsulfonylmethane in the tablets.

Additionally, the composition contains the following ingredients:

• Sodium.
• Potassium.
• Gelatin.
• Magnesium stearate.
• Silicon dioxide.

Additional components do not have therapeutic properties, but are necessary to give the correct form and prevent changes in composition under the influence of various factors.

Pharmacological properties

Glucosamin Chondroitin MSM, reviews of which are mostly positive, has several pharmacological properties. The most important is the ability to influence the processes of destruction of cartilage tissue in articular joints and intervertebral discs.

The substances included in the medicine help stimulate the formation of chondrocytes and synovial fluid , which improves joint mobility and prevents the progression of the pathological process.

In addition, the medicine stimulates blood circulation, promotes the supply of nutrients to tissues, and also has anti-inflammatory properties. By eliminating the pronounced symptoms of the disease, the patient’s general condition improves, pain is relieved, and motor activity increases.

It is worth noting that the product has a regenerating effect, that is, it helps speed up the tissue healing process. This property allows the product to be used not only in the treatment and prevention of degenerative changes.

Additionally, the medication stimulates the formation of collagen and hyaluronic acid in the body. These substances are extremely important for joints and all tissues.

Reviews of the biological supplement

The drug is actively used by athletes, especially bodybuilders. But the drug is also purchased for prevention by people who do not lead an active lifestyle. Buyers are positive towards the complex and observe changes in their joints for the better.

Today, ginseng has proven itself well in bodybuilding. It perfectly fights fatigue, thirst, increases strength, and most importantly, improves recovery processes, the functioning of the respiratory system and the performance of the body as a whole.

An alternative to ginseng is asparkam, a drug that replenishes the lack of potassium and magnesium in the body, increases performance and reduces fatigue. Asparkam and bodybuilding, as consumers note, are two parts of one whole.

Thanks to chondrotin, water balance is maintained in cartilage joints, which plays a shock-absorbing role and strengthens the strength of joints during exercise.

Together they give excellent results, namely:

• normalize heart rhythm;
• treat overtraining;
• prevent the occurrence of seizures.

The drug is used in the form of injections or tablets.

Athletes note that Glucosamine Chondroitin is ideal for “drying” the body and perfectly restores after injuries. The drug provides additional protection for joints and ligaments during the most intense periods of training.

Nutrition glucosamine chondroitin has only one negative review, and even this is not directly related to the effect of the drug - the consumer is dissatisfied with the aromatic property of the supplement. This is explained by the fact that the complex contains shark and shrimp cartilage, which affects the smell of the tablets.

No less popular in terms of the number of positive reviews is the animal pack vitamin and mineral complex. It helps eliminate toxins, is well accepted by the body and has virtually no contraindications.

The drug enriches tissues with essential vitamins and minerals, and also helps reduce fat mass, improve health, improve strength, attention and endurance. The complex is taken to increase lean muscle weight.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

The pharmacodynamics of the drug has been fully studied. After it enters the body, an active process of absorption of active components into the systemic bloodstream occurs. Chondroitin and glucosamine accumulate in connective and cartilage tissue, as well as synovial fluid of joint joints.

Due to the concentration in tissues in large quantities, the maximum therapeutic effect is achieved in a short period of time. 2-3 weeks after the start of treatment, there is a significant improvement, elimination of acute symptoms of inflammation and a slowdown in the pathological process.

Mobility in the spinal column or affected joints is restored, and pain becomes less pronounced.

Due to the active flow of blood and nutritional components into the affected area, the process of tissue restoration, the formation of chondrocytes and synovial fluid begins. The remedy will not help to completely restore the affected cartilage at an advanced stage of the disease, but it can significantly improve the condition of the tissue.

The drug is actively involved in the metabolism of potassium in the body, therefore it helps strengthen bones and improves the condition of the skin, muscles, and ligaments. After completing the course of therapy, the patient notes not only an improvement in well-being, but also positive changes in the skin, hair and nails.

The pharmacokinetics of the drug begins after its penetration into the digestive tract. The active absorption process occurs in the patient's small intestine. The bioavailability of glucosamine reaches 23-26%, chondroitin - no more than 15%. The components bind rather poorly to blood proteins, but this does not weaken the effectiveness of the medicine.

Processing of active substances occurs in the liver. The period of release of the body from glucosamine lasts up to 6 days. Chondroitin is completely eliminated within 24 hours. The main amount of metabolites are excreted in the urine, a small part is excreted in the feces.

In patients with pathologies of the digestive tract and urinary system, the period of absorption and excretion of components is slightly prolonged, which does not weaken the therapeutic effect.

special instructions
