Description / Action: 

Collagen peptide type II is main component of cartilage in the body. It is used to treat joint pain associated with arthritis and surgeries, joint pain and pain following injury. Glucosamine promotes synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (joint cartilage) and helps in the protection of the bones and joints. Chondroitin sulphate is one of the cartilage component and strengthens the cartilage. Sodium hyaluronte is a glycosaminoglycan which is similar to joint fluid and acts as lubricant. It is helpful in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

As genetic predisposition for joint disorders, lack of movement or obesity, age related wear & tear and many other factors can affect the joint health. Lubrihans tablets provide two critical missing pieces in joint health management: synovial fluid support and strength to cartilage. It is a unique formula that contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Collagen Peptide Type II.
