SYNVISC
Synvisc is an FDA-approved therapy that provides incomparable relief from osteoarthritic pain experienced in the knees.
Synvisc is a viscous, elastic fluid made from hyaluronan, mimicking the natural hyaluronic acid found in the knee joint. It acts as both a "shock absorber" and lubricant for the knee joint, providing both relief and comfort for patients. This viscosupplementation helps to restore the cushioning effect when injected directly into the knee joint by a qualified health care professional. Synvisc is indicated for the treatment of osteoarthritic pain in patients who have failed to respond to conservative non-pharmacologic therapy and simple analgesics ex: acetaminophen.
Osteoarthritis causes synovial fluid found in the knee joint to gradually become thinner and weaker, losing its ability to properly lubricate the joint. Without the cushioning effect of synovial fluid, cartilage in the knee is likely to wear much more quickly, contributing to the pain of stiffness in the knee. A successful Synvisc treatment helps reduce this pain, allowing you to return to a more comfortable, active life. Your doctor may ask you to temporarily avoid strenuous activity following Synvisc treatments.
HYALGAN
Hyalgan is a sterile, highly purified compound similar in chemical composition to the natural hyaluronan found in a healthy knee joint.
Hyalgan has been proven in medical studies to provide relief to osteoarthritic pain. Hyaluronan is a natural fluid found in many tissues throughout the body, particularly in joint tissues. Hyalgan is hyaluronan-based, providing lubrication and cushioning to the knee joint where synovial fluid is lacking.
DUROLANE
DUROLANE is a clear, thick and flexible gel made from a form of a naturally occurring substance called hyaluronic acid, which is the body's own joint lubricant. It has been designed specifically for injection into joints affected by osteoarthritis (knee and hip), to provide lubrication and cushioning.
DUROLANE is different from other products containing hyaluronic acid that are used to treat osteoarthritis, as it contains Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid (NASHA). This is a substance with greatly improved features compared with older hyaluronic acid products. These features mean that DUROLANE is able to stay within joints for a long time (at least 3 months) whilst still being treated by your body as a natural product.
DUROLANE is injected directly into your joint by a qualified doctor and, due to its unique properties, treatment of either hip or knee osteoarthritis involves only one injection.
ORTHOVISC
Is a viscous (thick) sterile mixture made from highly purified hyaluronan dissolved in saline. Hyaluronan is a natural chemical found in the joint fluid of your body. The body's own hyaluronan acts like a lubricant and a shock absorber in the joint. It is needed for the joint to work properly.
ORTHOVISC is ultra-pure hyaluronan, which contains no buffers or preservatives. ORTHOVISC contains the highest concentration of hyaluronan available per injection.
ORTHOVISC® is used to relieve knee pain due to osteoarthritis. It is used for patients who do not get adequate pain relief from simple pain relievers like acetaminophen or from exercise and physical therapy.
ORTHOVISC® is usually given by a trained healthcare professional - usually an orthopedic surgeon or a rheumatologist. Your family doctor can refer you to one of these specialists. To find out more, talk to your doctor or physical therapist.
SUPARTZ
SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy was the first hyaluronan Joint Fluid Therapy approved for use in treating the pain of osteoarthritis (OA). Since 1987, more than 143 million SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy injections have been sold worldwide, surpassing all other Joint Fluid Therapy products. You can use the world's most prescribed Joint Fluid Therapy with confidence and reliability backed by a wealth of clinical experience.
SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy is used for the treatment of pain in OA of the knee for patients who have failed to get adequate relief from simple painkillers, exercise and physical therapy.
SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy is a solution of highly purified, sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronan). Hyaluronan is a natural substance found in particularly high amounts in joint tissues and in the fluid (synovial fluid) that fills the joints. The body's own hyaluronan acts like a lubricant and shock absorber in the synovial fluid of a healthy joint. OA reduces the ability of the synovial fluid to protect and lubricate your joints.
SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy contains a higher total concentration of the active ingredient per recommended treatment series than any other Joint Fluid Therapy - 125 mg. It is administered directly to the site of your knee pain.
