Colchicine
"For pharmaceutical use, Alchem offers Colchicine with all its inherent benefits"
Colchicine is an alkaloid prepared from the dried corns and seeds of Colchicum autumnale, the autumn crocus or meadow saffron. The most common use of colchicine is as prophylaxis to prevent attacks of gout or pseudogout. These are types of arthritis caused by a buildup of crystals in the joints. Blood cells travel to these areas of inflammation causing pain and swelling. Colchicine prevents white blood cells from travelling into these areas, and therefore helps to reduce pain and tenderness.
Colchicine inhibits microtubule polymerization by binding to tubulin, one of the main constituents of microtubules. Availability of tubulin is essential to mitosis, and therefore colchicine effectively functions as a "mitotic poison" or "spindle poison". Colchicine's pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects for gout are linked to its ability to bind with tubulin. Colchicine also inhibits neutrophil motility and activity, leading to a net anti-inflammatory effect. Colchicine is usually effective in relieving a gout attack within 12 to 24 hours. Low doses of colchicine are effective in preventing or reducing the severity of future gout attacks.
In addition to gout, Colchicine is used in certain patients with medical conditions such as Amyloidosis, Behcet's disease, dermatitis herpetiformis, familial Mediterranean fever, Paget's disease, Pericarditis, Pseudogout, biliary and hepatic cirrhosis.
The product addresses broad spectrum physiological concerns and has the band width and capabilities to meet expectations. Regular use should exhibit demonstrable results to inhibit various health related issues.
