A chondroitin is a chondrin derivative.[1]

Types include:

Chondroitin as a supplement is now commonly used in treating the joint disease of osteoarthritis as well as glucosamine.[2] In contrast to the symptomatic treatments, Chondroitin can modify the progression of a disease process in the patient which it can be used as an alternative medicine.[2] Chondroitin have effect toward the articular cartilage integrity as it is part of the proteoglycan molecules.[3] The cartilage proteoglycan synthesis can speed up as chondroitin is going through the pathway of the alimentary canal.[3] Research has been conducted to shows the effectiveness of Chondroitin and results indicate that it helps to manage pain in knee and hip, slow down the progression and also recovery.[4] However, although these results are supported by studies, the effect of the drugs are still in doubt as many of the research are not under the standard requirement.[3]
