Pentosan polysulfate (PPS) is a heparin-like, semi-synthetic polysaccharide ester derived from beechwood hemicellulose. PPS is a mild anticoagulant, with anti-inflammatory, fibrinolytic, and hypolipidemic properties. In human medicine, PPS is used to treat interstitial cystitis, particularly in women.
In veterinary medicine, PPS is used to manage and treat OA. PPS is thought to help preserve cartilage integrity and to improve joint health by supporting anabolic activity of chondrocytes and synoviocytes. It also provides protection from catabolic events within the joint by reducing levels of cytokines and inflammatory mediators within cartilage matrix and synovial fluid.
Horses
PPS is used systemically in horses as a part of conservative management/treatment of OA. Studies have shown therapeutic levels in synovial fluid following intramuscular (IM) administration. PPS usually is administered by IM injection once a week for a series of four weeks. It also may be administered intra-articularly
