WHAT IS GLYCOSAN?
Glycosan is a sterile injectable solution of glucosamine hydrochloride 200 mg/ml for exclusive intravenous use, indicated to treat arthritic joints and rebuild cartilage.Sport horses treated with IV glucosamine (Glycosan) show significant improvement within two weeks.
HOW TO ADMINISTER GLYCOSAN?
Dosage for an adult horse (500 kg):
To relieve pain and repair joints: Administer 20 ml via intravenous injection every 5 to 10 days.
As preventive treatment: Administer 20 ml of intravenous Glycosan on race day.
BENEFITS OF IV ADMINISTRATION:
Intravenous administration of glucosamine produces higher glucosamine levels in serum and synovial fluid compared to oral supplements.
In a 12-hour study, intravenous glucosamine in horses resulted in peak glucosamine levels:✅ 50 times higher in serum✅ 20 times higher in synovial fluid
Compared to the administration of oral glucosamine HCl, IV use delivers significantly superior absorption and efficacy.
HOW DOES EQUINE OSTEOARTHRITIS DEVELOP?
Trauma and inflammation in joints initiate a complex series of events that ultimately affect all joint tissues:
Articular cartilage: Covers the ends of bones.
Synovial fluid: Bathes the cartilage, reducing friction and providing lubrication.
Joint membranes (synovial membrane and articular capsule): Protect and cushion the joint.
Subchondral bone: Located beneath the cartilage, can become affected in advanced stages.
WHY IS GLUCOSAMINE SO NECESSARY?
Glucosamine is a vital component of cartilage, making it an essential supplement for joint health in horses, especially under physical stress or competition.
🔎 Glucosamine functions:
Precursor to glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), the building blocks of cartilage and synovial fluid.
Contributes to cartilage protection and joint lubrication.
Promotes production of GAGs, ensuring the joint’s relative flexibility and shock absorption.
With low molecular weight (LM), glucosamine ensures rapid absorption and effectiveness, helping maintain healthy joints and overall mobility.
