FAQs
Q. Does Cartiform Forte actually work in joint pain?
The evidence on the effectiveness of Cartiform Forte in reducing pain is controversial. Some patients report that Cartiform Forte has helped reduce arthritis pain, stiffness, and mild to moderate osteoarthritis pain. In fact, there is some evidence that Cartiform Forte has beneficial effects on the cartilage by slowing down the cartilage breakdown in the joints.
Q. Can Cartiform Forte cause liver damage?
In research studies, Cartiform Forte has not been found to raise the liver enzymes or cause any damage. However, there are few recent reports of liver injury while using the products containing Cartiform Forte. The chances of liver injury are more if the patient has been suffering from chronic liver disease.
Q. Is Cartiform Forte bad for kidneys?
The effect of Cartiform Forte on kidneys is not confirmatory. Cartiform Forte is mostly metabolized and broken down by the liver. However, there are some reports of kidney damage caused due to Cartiform Forte, but there is a lack of conclusive evidence. Therefore, it should be used with caution in patients with kidney damage and kidney function should be regularly monitored. Do consult your doctor before you start using this medication. Also, inform your doctor if you have any kidney disease.
Q. What are the precautions I should follow while taking Cartiform Forte?
Do consult your doctor before you start taking this medication and ensure to be cautious if you have diabetes or high blood glucose levels, high risk of heart disease or asthma. You should also be cautious if you are allergic to shellfish or are taking blood-thinning medicines like warfarin.

Q. Is it safe to take Cartiform Forte while taking blood-thinning medication?
No, it is not safe to take Cartiform Forte while taking blood-thinning medications like warfarin or coumadin.

Therefore, patients taking any blood-thinning medicine should consult their doctor before starting this medication.
