Cartalax is a synthetic tripeptide with the amino acid sequence Ala-Glu-Asp (AED). This short-chain peptide belongs to the class of Khavinson bioregulator peptides, which are designed to exert highly tissue-specific epigenetic regulation. Cartalax selectively targets chondrocytes, fibroblasts, and extracellular matrix–producing cells in cartilage and connective tissues.
Mechanism of Action
Cartalax modulates gene expression at the chromatin level in target cells of the musculoskeletal system. It interacts with nuclear regulatory proteins and epigenetic modifiers to normalize transcription of genes involved in:
Chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation
Synthesis of collagen, proteoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans
Inhibition of catabolic enzymes (e.g., matrix metalloproteinases)
Reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine signalling
Maintenance of extracellular matrix homeostasis
These actions support structural integrity, functional restoration, and regenerative capacity of cartilage, joints, ligaments, and connective tissues.
Indications & Usage
Cartalax is used to support joint, cartilage, and connective tissue health. It is indicated for:
Maintenance of cartilage integrity and joint function
Assistance during age–related decline in musculoskeletal resilience
Support for recovery from physical stress, repetitive strain, or environmental factors affecting joints and connective tissues
General tissue regeneration and anti-aging support in the locomotor system
Contraindications & Warnings
Do not use if you have:
Known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation
Active malignancy or suspected cancer in musculoskeletal tissues
Severe uncontrolled inflammatory joint disease or acute infection Age under 18 years
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
Warnings
Use only under medical supervision.
Not a substitute for standard medical treatment of arthritis, injury, or degenerative joint conditions.
Discontinue immediately and seek medical attention if unusual symptoms occur (e.g., severe joint swelling, fever, or signs of infection).
Dosage & Administration
Subcutaneous injection only.
Low Dose (0.5 mg): 6 clicks daily- maintenance and general joint/cartilage support (yields 40 doses) Moderate Dose (1 mg): 12 clicks daily- moderate wellness and strain relief (yields 20 doses)
High Dose (2 mg): 24 clicks daily-intensive recovery and targeted cartilage/joint benefits (yields 10 doses)
Frequency: Once daily
Timing: Morning on an empty stomach or as directed by your healthcare provider
Administration Instructions
Wash hands and prepare a clean surface.
Attach a sterile needle.
Dial the required number of clicks.
Clean injection site (abdomen or upper thigh) with alcohol swab.
Insert needle at 45-90° angle and inject slowly.
Withdraw needle, dispose safely, and cap the pen.
Rotate injection sites to minimize irritation.
Always inspect solution before use: Do not inject if cloudy, discoloured, or containing particles.
Side Effects
Cartalax is generally well tolerated. Reported reactions are rare and mild, including:
Transient injection-site redness, itching, or mild swelling
Headache or light-headedness (usually resolves quickly)
Temporary fatigue or changes in energy levels during initial days
Rare gastrointestinal upset
If any severe or persistent symptoms occur, discontinue use and contact your healthcare provider immediately.
Storage & Handling
Store either in refrigerator (fridge); never freeze or in a cool dry place (≤25-30°C / 77-86°F). Keep pen capped and protected from light and heat.
After first use: Same storage conditions.
Keep out of reach of children.
Discard if expired or solution appears abnormal.
