For Intramuscular Use In Horses
CAUTION:

DESCRIPTION:
Each 5 milliliters of Adequan i.m. contains 500 mg of Polysulfated
Glycosaminoglycan
(PSGAG) and Water for Injection q.s. Sodium Hydroxide and/or
Hydrochloric Acid added
when necessary to adjust pH. Sodium Chloride may be added to adjust
tonicity.
PHARMACOLOGY:
Polysulfated Glycosaminoglycan is chemically similar to the
glycosaminoglycans in
articular cartilage matrix. PSGAG is a potent proteolytic enzyme
inhibitor and diminishes
or reverses the pathologic processes of traumatic or degenerative
joint disease which
result in a net loss of cartilage matrix components. PSGAG improves
joint function by
reducing synovial fluid protein levels and increasing synovial fluid
hyaluronic acid
concentration in traumatized equine carpal and hock joints.

Adequan i.m. is recommended for the intramuscular treatment of
non-infectious
degenerative and/or traumatic joint dysfunction and associated
lameness of the carpal
