PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT

Chondrotek Forte stimulates the regeneration (restoration) of cartilaginous tissue.
Glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate, which are part of the drug, participate in the synthesis of connective tissue, helping to prevent cartilage destruction processes and stimulating the regeneration of cartilaginous tissue. The introduction of exogenous glucosamine sulfate enhances the production of a cartilage matrix and provides non-specific cartilage protection against chemical damage. Glucosamine sulfate is involved in the biosynthesis of proteoglycans, hyaluronic, chondroitinsulfuric acids, which are a building material for articular membranes, intraarticular fluid and cartilaginous tissue.
Chondroitin sulfate is involved in the construction of cartilaginous tissue, serves as an additional substrate for the formation of a healthy cartilage matrix.
Stimulates the formation of hyaluronone, the synthesis of proteoglycans and type II collagen. Protects hyaluronone from enzymatic cleavage (by suppressing the activity of hyaluronidase) and the damaging effect of free radicals; maintains the viscosity of the synovial fluid, stimulates mechanisms of cartilage repair and restores the activity of those enzymes that break down cartilage (elastase, hyaluronidase). Chondroitin sulfate helps to restore the elasticity of the joint bag, cartilage surfaces of the joints, plays the role of natural lubrication of the joint surfaces. Reduces the activity of the inflammatory process in the tissues of cartilage and joints. Reduces the need for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in patients with arthrosis.
Glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate, when combined, have a greater effect due to synergy, compared to the individual effect of each of these components.

Vitamin E as an antioxidant inhibits the development of free radical reactions, prevents the formation of peroxides that damage the cellular and subcellular cartilage membranes, which is important for the body in osteoarthritis.

PHARMACOKINETICS

Glucosamine sulfate is distributed in tissues: the highest concentrations are found in the liver, kidneys and articular cartilage.
About 30% of the dose is persistently persistent in bone and muscle tissue. It is excreted mainly with urine in unchanged form; in part - with feces. T 1/2 - 68 h.
Chondroitin sulfate is metabolized by desulfurization.
It is excreted in the urine, T 1/2 - 310 min.
Vitamin E is absorbed from the duodenum by 50-80%.
It binds to beta-lipoproteins of blood. Deposited in all organs and tissues, especially in adipose tissue, is excreted in bile (more than 90%).
INDICATIONS

- osteoarthrosis I-III st.
peripheral joints and spine.
