Warnings & Precautions:

May affect blood glucose monitoring in diabetics (though clinical impact is minimal). Contains sodium—use cautiously in hypertension or salt-restricted diets. Inform your doctor if you are on anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin), as chondroitin may theoretically increase bleeding risk.

Drug Interactions:

Chondroitin may potentiate the effect of warfarin—monitor INR closely. No significant interactions with most analgesics or cardiovascular drugs. Always disclose all supplements to your healthcare provider.
