PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
The drug with improves the regeneration of cartilaginous tissue and anti-inflammatory action for external use.
Chondroitin sulfate is a high molecular weight mucopolysaccharide, which is involved in the construction of cartilaginous tissue. Reduces the activity of enzymes that destroy articular cartilage and stimulates its regeneration. In the early stages of the inflammatory process, chondroitin sulfate reduces its activity and thus slows the degeneration of the cartilaginous tissue. Helps reduce the intensity of pain syndrome, improve joint function, reduces the need for NSAIDs.
Glucosamine hydrochloride has chondroprotective properties, reduces the glycosaminoglycan deficiency in the body, takes part in the biosynthesis of proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid. Glucosamine hydrochloride selectively acts on the articular cartilage, is a specific substrate and stimulator for the synthesis of hyaluronic acid and proteoglycans, inhibits the formation of superoxide radicals and enzymes that damage the cartilaginous tissue (collagenase and phospholipase).
Camphor with local application irritates the sensitive nerve endings of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, expands the surface vessels, causes a feeling of heat, improves blood supply to the skin and subcutaneous tissues, and has a moderate antiseptic effect.
Peppermint oil with local application has a moderate antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, anesthetic and distracting effect.
