HOW COLAHYAL CAPSULE WORKS

Colahyal Capsule is a combination of three medicines: sodium hyaluronate, chondroitin and collagen peptide which relieve osteoarthritis symptoms. Sodium hyaluronate is the salt form of hyaluronic acid which reduces the friction in the joints and helps them to work smoothly. Chondroitin and collagen peptide are proteoglycan synthesis stimulators which help in the building of cartilage (soft tissue around the joints) leading to joint repair. Apart from this, collagen peptide also lowers pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).
