Chondroxide - instructions for use, reviews, analogs and formulations (ointment, gel and cream Forte for external use, tablets 250 mg) drugs for the treatment of arthrosis in adults, children and pregnancy

In this article, you can read the instructions for using the drug Chondroxide. There are reviews of visitors to the site - consumers of this medication, as well as opinions of doctors of specialists on the use of Chondroxide in their practice. A big request is to actively add their feedback on the drug: the medicine helped or did not help get rid of the disease, which were observed complications and side effects, possibly not declared by the manufacturer in the annotation. Analogues of chondroxide in the presence of existing structural analogues. Use for the treatment of arthrosis and osteochondrosis of the spine in adults, children, as well as during pregnancy and lactation.

 

Chondroxide - a tissue regeneration stimulator for external use. Chondroxide has a combined action:

  • slows the progression of osteoarthritis and osteochondrosis;
  • has analgesic effect;
  • has anti-inflammatory effect;
  • stimulates the restoration of articular cartilage;
  • improves the mobility of joints;
  • reduces swelling of the joints.

 

Due to the optimal combination of gel components, the mutual enhancement of their analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects is noted. The use of the drug Chondroxide allows you to reduce the dose of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) taken. Chondroxide contains the natural component of Chondroitin sulfate (high molecular weight mucopolysaccharide), which takes part in the construction of cartilaginous tissue. Chondroitin sulfate improves phosphoric-calcium metabolism in cartilaginous tissue; reduces the activity of enzymes that destroy cartilaginous tissue; inhibits the processes of degeneration (destruction) of cartilaginous tissue; stimulates the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans; prevents the collapse of connective tissue. This leads to a decrease in soreness and increased mobility of the affected joints.

Chondroxide is a drug familiar to all members of our family, except perhaps grandchildren. In tablets, we have not yet bought it, but the ointment in our medicine cabinet is not translated. My husband after a car accident has problems with the shoulder joint, I have gonarthrosis of the left knee, and my daughter and son-in-law have osteochondrosis, although both are not yet thirty. That's right, then one "grabs", then another, and without this ointment this can not do. She though also dear or expensive, but also helps or assists is good. We already do not pay attention to the smell of its specific, sniffed. Unfortunately, in my case, to restore the joint with a single ointment, even if it's so good, it will not work out at all desire. Here we need a set of measures: physiotherapy, massage, exercise therapy.But already it is good that it does not give any side effects and in just a couple of weeks completely removes pain and partially restores the joint mobility. Yes, and it's easy to be treated - twice a day you rub it into a sore spot and then wrap it around with something warm. I regret only that I did not start using Chondroxide before, as a preventive agent, maybe now there would not be problems with my leg either.

It helps with problems with joints. My mother helped me when the doctor diagnosed arthrosis of the knee joints in the initial stage (according to the X-ray image) and prescribed poprinimat Arthra and rub the painful joints of Chondroxide gel. As a result, after using this complex every six months, my mother felt relieved and now practically does not remember her illness.

The problem with the knee joint is arthrosis. It seems to help at first. Inflammation partly removes As for the restoration of the joint in the long term, that is the opinion that chondroitin sulfate penetrates very badly through the skin, and the inflammation simply removes dimethylsulfoxide which is also present there. What is interesting is not found an imported analogue of chondroxide. Or indeed they do not release it for some reason. If anyone knows an imported analog it is interesting to see for comparison? Yes, and read any counterarguments.

Rubik, I'll tell you more. Ointments and creams with gels, like physiotherapy, are basically our invention. Yes, in the West you can find ointments, but with proven anti-inflammatory effect. There, the effectiveness of treatment is set in the forefront, so weeks there is simply no opportunity to apply ointments to the doctors there, because the insurers stand and consider your effectiveness as a specialist. In this there is a minus - because the long-term consequences of horse doses of drugs are weakly want to evaluate, the main thing is that now.And chondroitin is also widely consumed by Westerners, especially in combination with glucosamine.

vladimir, Cheap analogs and chondroitin, and glucosamine a lot, but I think so, if in such a difficult issue as treating traumatic arthrosis you have achieved a good remission (from your words), then do not experiment, otherwise you will still have to achieve a steady effect with the previous drugs. Usually it turns out from my medical experience when changing the drug to a cheaper one led to a subsequent return to the old and more expensive ones.

Nathan, In the instruction there is a general recommendation and a contraindication of the use of the drug Chondroxide with regard to dosage forms in the form of tablets or Forte cream. With regard to the usual ointment or cream is the authorization to use the drug during pregnancy or during breastfeeding, but only after consulting with the doctor and under his supervision. So if the drug is prescribed to you by a doctor, then the use of these dosage forms during pregnancy is permitted.

I have arthrosis of the knee joint. Just bought an ointment. I want to try. My doctor thinks it's useless, although he said (after viewing the picture) that I still have it not so bad. After the course of treatment, the pains did not pass, but became less, and now again resumed, especially at night. I save myself with compresses with dimexid and I hope for chondroxide. Is such a combination possible?
Administrators

SvetlanaThis combination is acceptable. Treatment of arthrosis is long, as the drugs have a long period of accumulation and exposure to the body. So you need to have patience. And do not engage in self-treatment, and turn to a competent rheumatologist, until time is lost and the disease does not progress.

Two months ago, my back was shooting at me.As always, I thought that will pass, but it was so - the pain did not subside. I had to turn to a neurologist for help. After the examination, the doctor sent me to X-ray. The picture showed that I have an osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral department. The doctor prescribed intramuscular injections and for external use the chondroxide gel. Gel, due to its analgesic properties, removed inflammation and pain at the same time subsided. But along with this, after a weekly application of the gel, there was an itch in the places of application, and later an allergic reaction to the skin, that is, an eruption. I had to stop using this medicine.

Good day! I bought Chondroxide because of unpleasant pain in the lower back. I took this drug on the advice of a friend. Ointment is not bad. It's good. The result was noticeable almost immediately. Now, no pains torment me, but I still always have this thing in my medicine cabinet. With any stretching and other unpleasant diseases you need to rub this ointment. Pain comes off in a few minutes. Worth Chondroxide is not so expensive (something around 250-300 rubles). I think its price fully justifies the price.Moreover, it is not spent so quickly. One tube for at least a year can suffice.

The surgeon diagnosed the doctor: gonarthrosis of the knee joint. Without x-rays and tests. The usual doctor the therapist quickly corrected everything. Also has directed on a roentgen and analyzes. The radiologist said: calcium deposition on the knee tendon.
Began to smear with diclofenac. The pain did not abate at rest. There was an irritation and a rash. He dropped it.
Began to apply chondroksid and in parallel to do or make nyxes diclofenacom. On your own. Pain immediately diminished and began to disappear.
At the same time he was doing laser therapy.10 sessions.
This lasted a whole month. And began to walk. Only could not run. The load did not give. The doctor traumatologist from 13 bol-tsi has appointed or nominated MRT knee.
Only after it will it be clear how to treat further.
Chondroxite has appointed itself. I was told in the pharmacy. That is, in the clinic of the entire treatment was only laser therapy. I understood one thing. In a clinic in Moscow in the Central Administrative District doctor did not do anything about his finger. I got to everything myself.

Administrators

Vladimir, Puffiness and pain in the joint is a symptom, not the cause of the disease. The causes of the phenomena indicated by you can often be arthrosis or arthritis of the joints, less often gout. Approaches to treatment of these diseases are different and should be systemic. Chondroxide ointment will help with arthrosis, and in the case of the other two diseases it is less than useless. So consult a doctor - hand in biochemistry and make an x-ray of the swollen joint, then it will be clear and for treatment.

Good afternoon, I'm 36 years old. The doctor diagnosed coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the initial stage.He said for the prevention of drinking Don, and about chondroprotectors, not a word, says that not everything is so bad. I'm finishing the second package, but there is a pain in my leg from time to time. Here I want to finish drinking Don and start taking chondroxide. Can I take them alone or together? Or can you advise an effective medicine. In six months I plan a pregnancy.
Administrators

IrinaIn the form of an ointment or cream Chondroxide can generally be indefinitely long, if the skin and its reaction to the medicine allows. Forte Forte better not to use for 2-3 weeks. For tablets, a 3-4 month course of admission is sufficient and then a break should be made.

Alia, Don is a chondroprotector. As I look at the reviews of my patients, even better Chondroxida responds about it. The only time is to take it for a long time (3-4 months) like any other chondroprotector. Preparations of this group do not immediately relieve the pain in the affected joints, they help inhibit the processes of destruction of articular cartilage and thus prolong the period of adequate existence of patients. If I were you, I would continue treatment with the Don.Good also helps with your illness physiotherapy or sanatorium-resort (and before the planned pregnancy rest will not be superfluous).

On хондроксиду I have personal experience - to knees and a loin slightly helps (especially коленкам), but here a cervical department ... In three-four days of application the pain only amplifies, therefore it is necessary to stop rubbing. I think that the effect is more associated with massage - when rubbing chondroxide the palm is slightly sticking and the heat spreads through the body, which then keeps for another half an hour. For cervical osteochondrosis, I was recommended some "Tight onion" - as part of chondroitin, essential oils and extracts from herbs. Painful sensations in the cervical region reduces much more efficiently than chondroxide, but if it cures, it's still a question ... I was advised to eat for a few months every day scrolled in a meat grinder and long-boiled pork ears without salt, but it's expensive, so a week already I eat boiled chicken legs (10-12 pieces a day, because they are cheap :)) ... so far nothing has been noticed, but the effect can become noticeable, I was told, in about four months, provided the daily gymnastics of the cervical department, sparing gymnastics, naturally.

But the question to my specialists is different - is it possible to combine the application of Osteogenon and chondroprotectors in any form to elderly people (78 years old, an ankle fracture with displacement, closed ... already slightly grown (three months after the fracture, even sensitive can be, in the mornings even swelling practically decreases)? A fracture in the background of osteoporosis, a woman, Osteogenon appointed himself, as doctors imposed a cast and without any directions and prescriptions were discharged from the hospital.
Administrators
admin
VladimirCombine Osteogenon and Chondroxide is possible, including the elderly. Although using drugs for the mineralization of bones or calcium preparations, you need to monitor blood pressure (may increase). According to the instructions, when combined with these drugs, there are no negative side effects.

Regarding the appointment of specific medications, specific patients, you should contact the specialized specialists for full-time consultation, since both the age and the concomitant diseases are most likely present in the patient.

Hello again! They began to rub the chondroxide in the fracture region (ankle), but I add 1-2 drops of fir oil to the portion of chondroxide - it stimulates the immune system and has a high permeability, and local circulation improves. Question: Does fir oil have a detrimental effect on the properties Chondroxide? The condition of the leg began to improve dramatically (and the time passed three months after the fracture, and perhaps the impact of the osteogen is beginning to affect) - when using the orthosis, LAB201 even cautiously walks without pain (although I forbid, but does not obey :)). In this regard, I have one more question for the specialists - is it possible to use alflutope intramuscularly together with the above-mentioned preparations? Will this speed up the restoration of bone, and, importantly, will it not be a waste of money (I'm not a new Russian, unfortunately :))?
Administrators
admin
Vladimir, Alflutop, as well as Chondroxide, have a positive effect on the joints and cartilage of the patient, that is, they do not fit the bone in any way. If a joint injury occurs in the fracture (it happens quite often with injuries), then the combination of Osteogenon and Chondroxide with Alflutop is justified and gives the proper effect.If there are only bone injuries, after a fracture, then it is possible to not spend on Chondroxide and Alflutop.

Alflutop with chondroxide combine and even potentiate mutual positive effects from joint application. As for the use of fir oil, such data is not known to me, but if empirically (experimentally) helps, add - it will not be worse.

Sophia, In your case, you need to see a doctor, since the cause of your pain is unknown. At least a snapshot and consultation of a neurologist is necessary to pass to find out the cause and treat the disease, and not any pain of unknown origin. Chondroxide most likely will not help you and while it can not be bought.

And do not apply chondroxide on the knee much. Do not need to cover the knee with a thick layer of ointment, and then dry for 24 hours, this will not give any advantage. Apply a little ointment on the skin of the knee (1-2 cm) and rub it until completely absorbed.

aswest9Perhaps they gave too much strain, that's the joints and began to ache. If you have not previously been examined, try to take tests for articular markers and make x-rays of the joints, which began to hurt. If it is determined arthrosis then you can try any of chondroprotectors as basic therapy (Chondroxide, arthritis, Teraflex, Struktum and others).With severe pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Diclofenac, Arkoxia, Meloxicam and others) can be used. And the load most likely will need to be reduced, replacing running for walking, swimming or biking, which give less stress on the joints.

Good afternoon. I am 24 years old. At me the damage of a meniscus of the left knee joint in 2-nd degree on Stoller. Damage occurred after a knee injury, as a result of a fall from a bicycle, they wrote out Chondroxide gel and physiotherapy, is there any sense in applying the gel? The joint hurts only after a long walk, loads, slightly swollen.MRI showed a synovitis and a slight exudate, the doctor said that there is nothing there, it's all because of my excess weight. With excess weight I struggle.
Administrators
admin
NataliaKu, To combat synovitis, it is better to use preparations of a group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). They come in various dosage forms. If the inflammation is severe, the administration of this group of drugs in oral forms (tablets, capsules) or injections (injections) is indicated. If the inflammation is not strong (as you, judging by the description), you can use the drugs of this group in the form of external ointments, creams or gels. I can recommend Voltaren, Fastum gel, Dolgit and many others. Chondroxide gel does not see a particular need, because there is no chondrodestructive process in the joint or it is not determined by the current diagnostic methods. You can use the cream Chondroxide Forte, which contains an anti-inflammatory ingredient in meloxicam, in addition to chondroitin sulfate.
