투여 방법

가능한 부작용

• Mild gastrointestinal upset
• Flatulence
• Stool softening or mild diarrhea
• Hypersensitivity reactions (rare, as products are derived from natural sources)

주의사항 및 금기

• Known hypersensitivity to glucosamine or chondroitin
• Use with caution in patients with bronchoconstrictive conditions (e.g., asthma), as glucosamine has been reported to exacerbate asthma symptoms in humans. Product quality varies widely; choose products with proven bioavailability. Products containing manganese could lead to manganese toxicity if given at very high dosages chronically.

약물 상호작용

• Doxorubicin: Glucosamine may induce resistance to this agent by reducing its inhibition of topoisomerase II.
• Etoposide: Glucosamine may induce resistance to this agent by reducing its inhibition of topoisomerase II.
• Warfarin: High doses of chondroitin/glucosamine may enhance coagulation effects and theoretically increase the International Normalized Ratio (INR).
• Heparin: High doses potentially could enhance the effects of heparin or other drugs that affect coagulation.
