Protecta effervescent tablets, 20 pcs.

Protecta is a stimulant of cartilage tissue regeneration. The pharmacological action of the drug is determined by the properties of its constituent components.

Glucosamine sulfate is a salt of the natural aminonosaccharide glucosamine, which is physiologically present in the human body. It activates the synthesis of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, hyaluronic and chondroitin acids and other substances that make up the joint membranes, intra-articular fluid and cartilage tissue; stimulates the synthesis of collagen. Favorably affects the metabolism of cartilage – increases anabolic and weakens catabolic processes, increases the permeability of the joint capsule, restores enzymatic processes in the cells of the synovial membrane and articular cartilage. Has chondroprotective and osteotropic effects, normalizes the deposition of calcium in bone tissue. Moderate anti-inflammatory effect, which is not associated with inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, but is realized due to antioxidant activity (by blocking the formation of superoxide radicals) and inhibition of lysosomal enzymes activity. Prevents possible metabolic damage to cartilage from the action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticosteroids (GCS). Chondroitin sulfate is a high molecular weight mucopolysaccharide involved in the construction of cartilage tissue (serves as an additional substrate for the formation of the cartilage matrix). It has a chondroprotective effect, stimulates the regeneration of cartilage tissue, shows anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect. Normalizes the metabolism of hyaline tissue, stimulates the formation of hyaluron, synthesis of proteoglycans and collagen type II, protects hyaluron from enzymatic cleavage, including lysosomal enzymes, which leads to the destruction of connective tissue. Influences phosphorus-calcium metabolism in cartilage, slows bone resorption and reduces calcium loss, slows down the process of cartilage degeneration. Prevents compression of connective tissue and plays the role of a lubricant for articular surfaces, and normalizes the formation of joint fluid. Glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate are involved in the biosynthesis of connective tissue, preventing the processes of cartilage destruction and stimulating the regeneration of cartilage tissue, which helps to reduce the severity of pain and improve the functional ability of the joints. Methylsulfonylmethane – a natural organic compound of sulfur, has high biological activity. Sulfur promotes liver absorption of minerals, is important for brain function, hair, nails, connective tissue, cartilage, has a pronounced anti-allergic effect. Methylsulfonylmethane promotes the removal of lactate from tissues, toxins, which increases the permeability of nutrients; helps the body repair damaged skin cells and connective tissue, increases their elasticity.

Manganese is involved in energy production, metabolism of proteins and fats, the synthesis of bone and connective tissue.
