Side Effects Of Glucosamine ChondroitinAuthor : Thomas Morva
 Glucosamine and Chondroitin are the building blocks of cartilage and connecting tissues. Glucosamine, also known as chitosamine, is a substance that occurs naturally in the covering of shellfish. Glucosamine is available in natural forms such as glucosamine hydrochloride, glucosamine sulfate as well as in synthetic forms. Chondroitin occurs naturally in shark or bovine cartilage. It is also synthesized in the labs. Chondroitin is also called chondroitin sulfate, chondroitin sulfuric acid and chonsurid. Glucosamine is usually combined with chondroitin to help people suffering from osteoarthritis. Studies have shown that this combination can improve the function of bones and restore cartilage. Chondroitin has ophthalmic uses too. It is present in the eye drop used during cataract removal and is also used to treat dry eyes. Research is being conducted to use chondroitin as an anticoagulant. Every action is countered by a reaction and it's true in the case of medicines too. They cause side effects depending on the person and the dosage taken. Studies show that glucosamine supplemented with chondroitin is usually safe to consume, but may have a few side effects. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, constipation, stomach pain, irregular heartbeats, hair loss and gastrointestinal upsets. Some people suffer from major side effects like intraocular hypertension where high pressure builds up inside the eyes as a result of using chondroitin in the eyes. People who have an allergy to shellfish must not take Glucosamine chondroitin. Diabetics must also be careful as it might elevate insulin levels in blood. Patients on blood thinners must use chondroitin only after consulting their physician. Chondroitin is a large molecule and may not be well absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Oral doses of glucosamine supplemented with chondroitin usually range from 400mg to 1200 mg per day taken in two or three doses. Glucosamine chondroitin is better to consume when compared to other supplements of chondroitin like manganese. |
