Tendovisc Tablet is a combination of four medicines: Chondroitin, Collagen Peptide, Sodium Hyaluronate and Vitamin C. Chondroitin and Collagen Peptide are proteoglycan synthesis stimulators which help in the building of cartilage (soft tissue that cushions the joints) leading to joint repair. Apart from this, Collagen Peptide also lowers pain and inflammation (swelling). Sodium Hyaluronate is natural polysccharide (sugar). It works by reducing friction in the joints and helps them work smoothly.
