Osteoarticular Line
Osteocart
Osteoarticular regenerator.
Composition
Amino acid pool: DL-Methionine, L-Cysteine, Lysine, Tryptophan, Histidine, Betaine |
Amino acids used by chondrocytes to synthesize proteins, proteoglycans, collagen and elastic fibers. They form the organic matrix of bone that binds calcium. |
Glucosamine |
Used by the chondrocytes to produce polysaccharides, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and hyaluronic acid of the cartilaginous matrix. Used by the synoviocyte to synthesize hyaluronic acid, increasing the viscosity of the synovial fluid, which improves its lubricating action on joints. |
Minerals and vitamins |
Copper, Zinc, Vitamin E and Selenium: Antioxidant action. They eliminate free radicals that act in oxidative processes. They reduce cell destruction processes (osteoarthritis). They protect muscle fiber. |
Copper, Zinc, Vitamin B6, Magnesium and Manganese |
They stimulate the anabolic processes of cartilage and bone repair. They contribute to the formation of tendons and ligaments. |
Dextrose |
Provides highly bioavailable energy. |
Indications
Osteoarthritis Arthrosis (degenerative arthropathies). Spondyloarthrosis. Chondroprotector during prolonged use of systemic corticosteroids. It favors chondrogenesis and fortifies the joints of foals and sport horses under intense training.
Posology and method of administration
Administer orally prior to feeding the equine. The recommended dose for adult equines is 15 grams (2 measures) a day for 60 days or until remission of symptoms. For foals, the dose must be reduced to 10 grams (1 and a half measures) a day.

Presentation
700 grams container. Includes a dosage measuring utensil that, when full, is equivalent to 7.5 grams.
Benefits
- Contributes to the formation of each of the structures that make up the locomotor system.
- Stimulates chondrocyte anabolism by providing an optimal proportion of amino acids, minerals, glucosamine, and vitamin B6.
- Improves synovial fluid viscosity by promoting hyaluronic acid synthesis (has).
- Prevents tendon injuries and contributes to their recovery through the stimulation of the synthesis of collagen, the main component of the tendon.
- Prevents muscle fatigue through the controlled supply of antioxidants such as vitamin E and selenium.
- Stimulates harmonic development of bones and cartilage in foals.
- Easy oral administration thanks to its excellent palatability.
Osteoarticular Line
Condroitin 10 IM
Osteoarticular regenerator, chondroprotector, anti-inflammatory and analgesic.
Composition
Type "A" chondroitin sulfate (10%) |
Fundamental component of the cartilage matrix with its main function being retaining of water, rehydration of the cartilage, enhancing of its elasticity and preservation of its healthy structure. It replaces the chondroitin sulfate which the cartilage loses, thus achieving a natural analgesia protecting the tissue, without the adverse consequences of synthetic drugs. It has anti-inflammatory properties, inhibits prostaglandins, and complement fixation. It destroys thrombi at microcirculation level. It is a proteases inhibitor. It decreases coagulation time. |
Indications
Adjuvant in the treatment and prophylaxis of osteoarticular pathologies. Artrosis. Osteoarthritis. Spondyloarthrosis. Chondroprotector during prolonged use of systemic corticosteroids. Intensive training of sport equines.
Posology and method of administration
For adult horses, administer 5 ml of product intramuscularly. For foals, administer 2.5 ml.

Presentation
Package which contains four 5 ml vials.
Benefits
- Natural non-steroidal antiarthritic for intramuscular use.
- Natural analgesic which acts by rapidly hydrating the cartilage, thus restoring its cushioning capacity.
- It produces strengthening of hyaline cartilage at all levels.
- It is a strong inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes that destroy mucopolysaccharides in non-infectious joint pathological processes.

Osteocrem
Creme analgésico antiartrose.
Osteoarticular Line
Equivisc
Hyaluronic acid.
High molecular weight and extreme purity hyaluronic acid. It has high intrinsic viscosity and high kinematic viscosity and is free of foreign proteins and other impurities that artificially increase molecular weight.
Composition
Hyaluronic acid 10,00 mg |
It is a hyaluronic acid with the same characteristics as the synovial fluid, which gives it a greater effectiveness and speed and prolongs it effect, thus requiring fewer applications. It provides optimum safety with less possibility of inflammatory reactions. Its lubricant effect protects joints from the functional irritation caused during movement. This function is important in sporting equines due to the overload suffered by heir joints during training and racing. |
Indications
Treatment of equines for joint dysfunctions due to non-infectious synovitis associated with osteoarthritis.
Posology and method of administration
The recommended dose for small and medium joints (carpus and knuckle) is of 2 ml (20 mg) and should be administered intraarticularly. For large joints (tarsus) the dose is of 4 ml (40 mg). The treatment can be repeated weekly up to a total of 3 applications.
