Afluton injections are based on extracts from marine fish. The drug has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Afluton is a trophic agent due to the presence of proteoglycans in it, and also has a chondroprotective effect.
It actively reduces the action of the enzyme hyaluronidase, as well as active substances that destroy the intercellular matrix. This effect normalizes the amount of hyaluronic acid in the bone tissue, as well as the biosynthesis of type 2 collagen. "Afluton" injections effectively regulate the metabolism in cartilage.
The drug reduces the permeability of capillaries and prevents the destruction of connective tissue. Increases the hydrophilicity of cartilage. Thanks to the substitution effect of Afluton, injections increase the uniformity of bone tissue. The composition of the synovial fluid, in which the number of lymphocytes, globulin and fibrinogen is also reduced, is also changed.

The most common disease of the musculoskeletal system is osteochondrosis. It can be observed in people of different ages. The reason for its appearance is usually a sedentary or sedentary lifestyle. If the disease is complicated by intervertebral hernias, then the pain passes to the head, arms, legs, and also internal organs. Afluton successfully fights these symptoms, preventing the destruction of the intervertebral discs. If the use of the drug does not give the desired effect, then this problem is treated promptly.
Many drugs that are prescribed by a doctor to treat the musculoskeletal system contain components that adversely affect the gastrointestinal tract. The injections of Afluton cannot adversely affect the stomach and liver, because they are administered intramuscularly and bypass the internal organs, entering immediately into the blood vessels.
After the course of treatment, you should follow a few simple tips:
- Move more often. Movement is life.
- Do not lift heavy objects. Our vertebrae are not designed to lift a lot of weight, this erases them, and a hernia can also occur. If there is a need to lift a heavy object, first sit down and then lift it.
- To maintain good tone of the back muscles, it is advisable to regularly visit the pool and hang on the horizontal bar.
