Montalin is a medicine for joints. Instructions for use, price

With age, the synthesis of natural hyaluron in the body decreases, which leads to discomfort in the joints, pain, and limited mobility. Hyaluronic acid, produced in older people, has a low molecular weight, so its concentration in cartilage is not enough for its normal functioning.

To compensate for the deficiency of natural synovial fluid, traumatologists and orthopedists recommend intra-articular injections of liquid prostheses based on sodium hyaluronate, as well as their synthetic analogues. After each course, the motor activity of the joint improves, the structure of the cartilage and its internal structure are restored. The only “but” is that the effect is temporary, and its duration depends on the medication. What is the difference between the liquid dentures that are most commonly used today?

Not all liquid synovial fluid grafts are equally effective

For older people, the drug can be taken by analogy with adults. If there are existing disorders of the liver or kidneys, this issue should be resolved by the local physician.

Pharmacokinetics

Montalin is a medicine for joints, the main volume of which is absorbed in the upper parts of the small intestine. The speed of onset of the therapeutic effect will depend on the time of evacuation of the contents from the stomach to this area.

The speed and completeness of absorption is greatly influenced by the intensity of peristalsis and the type of accompanying food. During treatment, it is advisable to limit the consumption of excessively hard foods and excess fiber.

After oral administration, the capsule dissolves quickly. Under the influence of digestive juices, herbal extracts break down into simpler elements, after which these particles easily penetrate through the intestinal walls into the circulatory and lymphatic system.

The ingredients have a complex therapeutic effect, so it is not possible to identify specific distribution routes and areas of special activity.

Contraindications

Particular caution when starting to take any medications with natural ingredients should be exercised by those people who have a history of allergic reactions and other symptoms of intolerance.

Other contraindications:

• impaired renal or liver function;
• diabetes mellitus type I or II;

2. Use of enterosorbents. Drugs such as Enterosgel, Polysorb, Polyphepan will help neutralize drug residues.
3. Taking laxatives – Fortrans, Microlax and others.
4. Cooling your head with an ice pack will slow the blood flow and prevent toxin damage.

• drop in blood pressure;

• allergic reactions;
• swelling of tissues.

If their severity becomes strong enough, it is recommended to interrupt treatment and seek medical help. In some cases, treatment can be continued when combined with symptomatic therapy.

Drug interactions

Montalin is a medicine for joints with a rich content of various biologically active substances. Therefore, combination with traditional medicine can lead to increased activity and provoke an increase in the toxicity of both drugs.

Patients taking potassium-based drugs or potassium-sparing drugs should not use Montalin, as simultaneous use increases the risk of developing hyperkalemia. Simultaneous use with anticoagulants is also prohibited in order to prevent possible problems with blood clotting.

Analogs

The drug is not registered in the register of medical products for the treatment of joint diseases, therefore it has no complete analogues. In addition to it, the pharmaceutical market offers a large number of other effective medicines, tablets and capsules.

Diclofenac

The substance quickly and permanently blocks joint pain and helps relieve inflammation.

Produced in several dosage forms:

• injection;
• tablets and capsules;
• rectal suppositories;
• ointments and gels.

Diclofenac indiscriminately inhibits the enzymes COX-1 and COX-2, thereby disrupting the metabolism of arachidonic acid and the production of prostaglandins responsible for the development of the inflammatory process.

When applied externally, no more than 6% of the dose is absorbed; a single dosage for intramuscular administration should not exceed 75 mg. The frequency of administration is no more than 1 time per day. The duration of therapy should also be strictly limited in accordance with the recommendations of the instructions for use of the specific dosage form.

Meloxicam

A drug from the NSAID group containing meloxicam is available in different dosage forms.

There are 2 types of dosage:

• 7.5 mg;
• 15 mg.

Meloxicam belongs to the oxicam class of NSAIDs, derivatives of enolic acid. The drug has antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. The standard course of treatment does not exceed 3-6 days. Longer therapy is accompanied by selectivity for COX-2, its activity decreases.

Meloxicam has a lesser effect of this kind on the activity of COX-1, which is responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are involved in protecting the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract. Thanks to this, the drug less often leads to the development of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract.

Other side effects are recorded in approximately 1 case out of 100. Caution during treatment should be exercised by patients who have had an acute form of gastric or duodenal ulcer in the past and are constantly taking anticoagulant drugs.

Don

The drug belongs to the correctors of tissue metabolism in bones and cartilage.

Release forms:

• solution for intramuscular administration – 2 ml ampoules, 6 pcs. in combination with a solvent;
• powder for preparing the solution - bags of 1.5 g, 20 and 30 pcs.;
• film-coated tablets – PET bottles of 60 and 180 pcs.

Active substance – glucosamine:

The drug effectively blocks inflammation, compensates for the internal deficiency of glucosamine, and enhances the production of proteoglycans and sodium hyaluronate in the synovial septum.

After injection into the muscle, the bioavailability of the solution reaches 95%. The drug is quickly distributed in the tissues of the body, the half-life is about 60 hours. Basically, the substance is excreted by the kidneys. The drug administration regimen is 3 times a week for 1.5 months. If necessary, the duration can be increased after consultation with the doctor.

Special instructions - due to the lidocaine contained in the solution, Dona injections are contraindicated for the treatment of patients with conduction pathologies in the heart and acute insufficiency of its functions, chronic epilepsy, during gestation and subsequent breastfeeding, as well as for children under the age of 12 years old.

Drugs for synovial fluid replacement

The pharmaceutical market offers a fairly large number of special solutions for replacing synovial fluid - a thick elastic mass that fills the internal cavity of the joints. In the body, it acts as a kind of lubricant, thereby preventing abrasion of the articular surfaces and increasing the range of movements.

It consists of 2 components:

• liquid;
• protein-saccharide.

The last element is sodium hyaluronate, a polysaccharide from a type of glycosaminoglycan. It ensures stabilization of the joint structure itself, forming complex molecules with high molecular weight.

Thanks to this action, synovial fluid prostheses provide high elasticity of cartilaginous tissue, and joints glide virtually without friction even under significant physical exertion.

The administration of the drug does not cause any negative reactions in the body. The treatment regimen, as a rule, involves a single administration of the solution per week for 1.5 months. Synovial fluid grafts are supplied in sterile syringes, ready for use.

Montalin can be used not only to treat joints, but also to prevent the development of pathologies. In this case, natural medicines make it possible to prolong the functionality of tissues with particular safety without the use of strong medications.
