About Ostijor Tablet 10's

Ostijor Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medications known as 'supplements & adjuvant therapy' used to reduce the pain of osteoarthritis (OA) in specific large and small joints. Osteoarthritis is a chronic (lifelong) joint condition in which Glucosamine sulfate (a chemical found in the human body, especially in joints) gets reduced. The body uses this fluid to produce other chemicals required to make ligaments, cartilage, tendons and the thick fluid surrounding joints. When this chemical get reduces, then the cartilage breaks down and becomes thin which causes friction between the bones leading to wear and tear (damage) of the joint tissues leading to pain, stiffness, inflammation, and reduced locomotion.

Taking Glucosamine may either enhance the cartilage and fluid surrounding joints or prevent both component's breakdown.

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) reduces joint pain, lowers inflammation, improves skin health, reduces allergic symptoms, and increases recovery after exercise.
