. Pharmacological action

Theraflex Advance is a drug that stimulates the regeneration of cartilage tissue, with an anti-inflammatory effect.

Chondroitin sulfate sodium serves as an additional substrate for the formation of a healthy cartilage matrix.

It stimulates the formation of hyaluronic acid, the synthesis of proteoglycans and type II collagen, and also protects hyaluronic acid from enzymatic degradation (by suppressing the activity of hyaluronidase); maintains the viscosity of synovial fluid, stimulates cartilage repair mechanisms, and suppresses the activity of those enzymes (elastase, hyaluronidase) that break down cartilage.

When treating osteoarthritis, it eases the symptoms of the disease and reduces the need for NSAIDs.

Glucosamine sulfate activates the synthesis of proteoglycans, hyaluronic, chondroitinseric acids and other substances that make up the joint membranes, intra-articular fluid and cartilage tissue.

Ibuprofen is a propionic acid derivative and has analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects due to the indiscriminate blockade of COX-1 and COX-2.

The glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate contained in the preparation potentiate the analgesic effect of ibuprofen.

Description

Stronger composition-healthier joint (1). Theraflex Advance. Theraflex is the No.1 drug for the treatment of osteoarthritis and osteochondrosis (2). Theraflex Advance is a unique state-of-the-art chondroprotector(3) that is manufactured in the USA in accordance with Bayer’s high quality standards. Unlike other drugs(4) Theraflex Advance contains an analgesic component Ibuprofen and Chondroitin with Glucosamine-substances that affect the structure of cartilage. The drug not only helps to reduce moderate joint pain, but also to relieve inflammation. Theraflex Advance also contains a proven daily dose of some of the most studied active substances glucosamine and chondroitin (5), which contribute to the restoration of joint cartilage tissue and improve their mobility. The combination of active components in the combined drug Theraflex Advance allows you to reduce the daily dose of Ibuprofen by 2 times, while maintaining its effectiveness in reducing pain(6). This reduces the likelihood of side effects that patients often experience with prolonged use of painkillers(7). Theraflex Advance is available in ideal capsule form(8), so:- includes only the necessary active ingredients without unnecessary additional impurities; – easily absorbed by the body. Theraflex Advance is recommended to take 2 capsules 3 times a day after meals. To restore the cartilage tissue of the joints, doctors recommend continuing treatment with the transition to the drug Theraflex for 3 months. Keep your joints healthy with 2 courses of Theraflex capsules and your joints will thank you(9).1. Theraflex Advance capsules additionally contain ibuprofen, which provides reliable relief of pain and stiffness after 2 weeks of treatment, compared to conventional Theraflex capsules (2 months).
