Modern Russian chondroprotector Artrakam
A sedentary lifestyle, poor nutrition and constant stress, inherent in most of the inhabitants of megacities today, lead to the development of various diseases of the joints and spine, the most common of which are osteoarthritis and osteochondrosis. The statistics of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system around the world testifies to the global nature of these processes. And in each case, an adequately prescribed treatment is required.
Drug therapy in the treatment of osteochondrosis
The pharmaceutical market offers a wide range of drugs used to treat joint diseases. Drug therapy is carried out in several directions:
- analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs - to eliminate the inflammatory process and relieve pain;
- chondroprotectors - to restore destroyed tissue that has lost its original properties;
- muscle relaxants - to relieve muscle spasms;
- vasodilators - to normalize blood flow;
- vitamin and mineral complexes - to strengthen the immune system.
Treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system requires an integrated approach, so only a doctor should prescribe it. However, the choice between analogs - imported and domestic - always remains with the patient.
The role of chondroprotectors in the treatment of osteochondrosis and osteoarthritis
Among all drugs used to treat pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, chondroprotectors play the most important role. They help restore cartilaginous surfaces, improve joint mobility, and normalize the production of intra-articular fluid.
Their use is most justified with proven efficacy in stages I and II of the disease. In addition to stimulating the production of glucosaminoglycans and normalizing the exchange of hyaline tissue, they have an analgesic effect - reduce pain and inflammation of the joint.
Chondroprotectors are available in different dosage forms: external creams, gels and ointments, tablets, powders and capsules for oral administration, intramuscular and intraarticular injections.
Artrakam benefits
The most important issue for the patient when purchasing medicines is the price / quality ratio. And this is justified, since, on the one hand, there is no point in overpaying, on the other, the drug must be effective.
One of the most demanded chondroprotectors is Artrakam®. Its active ingredient is glucosamine sulfate sodium chloride.
The drug has a number of advantages that distinguish it favorably among analogues:
- Release form. Artrakam® is available as a powder for oral administration. This ensures a better bioavailability of the active substance, and also reduces the load on the gastrointestinal tract. The contents of one sachet must be diluted in 200 ml of water before taking. The resulting solution has a pleasant lemon flavor. It is taken once a day. Complete course 40 sachets.
- Composition. Artrakam® is a monopreparation. Thanks to this, the likelihood of developing side effects, including allergic reactions, is much lower. The drug is made from European raw materials in accordance with all international standards.
- Price and availability in pharmacies. The low cost of Artrakam is due to the lack of costs for advertising campaigns on television, as well as due to production at a modern Russian licensed pharmaceutical plant. This allows the drug to be sold 1.5–2 times cheaper than its branded counterparts.
Unfortunately, there are still myths due to which trust in Russian-made drugs is at a low level. These are the well-established misconceptions that everything imported is better, and that the cheap cannot be effective, which has long been untrue. And that is why, in the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, Artrakam® is increasingly chosen - the leader in terms of price-quality ratio among domestic chondroprotectors.
