Prevent and treat osteoarthritis.
It contains the optimal doses of joint-healthy ingredients that help rebuild and restore cartilage and improve the quality and lubricating action of synovial fluid in the joints.
Available in
Cambodia, Kenya, Myanmar, Philippines, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia
Glucosamin & Chondroitin in recommended dose
OSTEOMIN contains both glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate. Glucosamine helps in the synthesis of proteoglycans that are essential in the building of cartilage and improves the quality of the natural joint lubricant (synovial fluid). Chondroitin reduces the friction between the bones, helps to cushion the ends of the bones and improves shock absorption in the joint. They work synergistically when taken together and help to improve mobility and reduce inflammation and pain in the joints.

In OSTEOMIN, glucosamine sulphate helps in the synthesis of proteoglycans that are essential in the building of cartilage and improves the quality of the natural joint lubricant (synovial fluid). Chondroitin improves the quality and elasticity of cartilage, helps to cushion the ends of the bones and improves shock absorption in the joint.
OSTEOMIN contains glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate. These substances help to rebuild cartilage and improve consistency of synovial fluid in the joints. Hence, OSTEMIN is used improve joint mobility and as an adjuvant in the treatment of osteoarthritis.
OSTEOMIN is usually well tolerated. Rarely, there may be side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, indigestion, heart burn, drowsiness, headache and insomnia.
Yes. OSTEOMIN may help relieve the pain and stiffness at the joints by helping repair the joint cartilage, improve cushioning and lubrication at the ends of the bone. By improving the quality of the cartilage and synovial fluid in the joints, it helps to alleviate and prevent further joint strain and improves mobility. Using OSTEOMIN regularly can help improve joint mobility.
Yes. It protects the cartilage at the ends of the bone in two ways, by providing the components necessary for cartilage production and reducing inflammation of the joints. Using OSTEOMIN regularly may help slow down and reverse the symptoms of osteoarthritis. However, OSTEOMIN is not meant to replace pain-killers in case of intense pain. It is advisable to take pain-killers alongside OSTEOMIN in the initial part of the treatment of osteoarthritis.
