1. What Mobilat is and what it is used for

Mobilat contains a suprarenal (adrenal) extract with anti-inflammatory and anti-exudative properties.
The action is enhanced by salicylic acid, which additionally exerts an analgesic effect and facilitates the penetration of biologically active components of Mobilat into tissues.
Mucopolysaccharide polysulphate acts anti-inflammatory, locally reduces blood coagulability, increases tissue perfusion, and accelerates tissue regeneration.

Indications for use
Treatment of traumatic and local inflammatory conditions, degenerative joint and periarticular tissue disorders.
Local supportive treatment of inflamed joints in rheumatic diseases.
