Uses
CARTIFLEX FORTE Tablets are used to promote joint health and relieve symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, such as stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility. Glucosamine supports the repair and regeneration of cartilage, while chondroitin helps retain water in the cartilage, improving elasticity and cushioning. MSM contributes anti‑inflammatory and pain‑relieving effects, and additional vitamins or minerals may enhance bone strength and overall joint function. By combining these components, CARTIFLEX FORTE helps improve flexibility, reduce discomfort, and support long‑term joint wellness.
Dosage and Administration
The tablets should be taken orally, swallowed whole with water. Dosage depends on the patient’s condition and response to treatment, and must always be adjusted under medical supervision. They are usually taken once or twice daily with meals to improve absorption and reduce gastrointestinal discomfort.

CARTIFLEX FORTE should be used cautiously in patients with shellfish allergies (as glucosamine is often derived from shellfish). Pregnant and breastfeeding women should only use it if clearly indicated by a physician. Patients with diabetes should monitor blood sugar levels, as glucosamine may affect glucose metabolism.
