Glucosamine in the form of a sulfate salt is a precursor of hexosamine, and the sulfate anion is necessary for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans. In the treatment of osteoarthritis, it alleviates the symptoms of the disease and reduces the need for HPVs.

The introduction of exogenous glucosamine enhances the production of the cartilaginous matrix and provides non-specific protection against chemical damage to the cartilage.

Another possible function of glucosamine is to protect the damaged cartilage from metabolic destruction caused by NSAIDs and GCS, as well as its own moderate anti-inflammatory effect.

Chondroitin sodium sulfate, whether absorbed in an intact form or as separate components, serves as an additional substrate for the formation of a healthy cartilage matrix.

Stimulates the formation of hyaluronone, the synthesis of proteoglycans and collagen type II, and also protects hyaluronone from enzymatic cleavage (by inhibiting activity hyaluronidase); maintains the viscosity of the synovial fluid, stimulates mechanisms of cartilage repair and suppresses the activity of those enzymes (elastase, hyaluronidase) that splitting cartilage.

Treatment is recommended starting with the drug Teraflex Advance, which quickly reduces pain and simultaneously begins to stimulate the renewal of cartilaginous tissue. Then it is advisable to take Teraflex to prolong the anesthetic effect and protect the cartilage.
