GLUCOSAMINE+CHONDROITIN SULFATE belongs to a class of medications called 'proteoglycan synthesis stimulator', primarily taken to reduce the pain of osteoarthritis (OA) in specific large and small joints. Osteoarthritis is a chronic (lifelong) joint condition in which Glucosamine sulfate and Chondroitin (natural chemicals found in healthy cartilage) get 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 gets reduced, 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.
