Orthovisc Osteoarthritis Knee Pain Treatment Injection Prefilled Syringes is used to treat knee pain in patients with joint inflammation (osteoarthritis). It is usually used in patients who have not responded to other treatments such as acetaminophen, exercise, or physical therapy. Hyaluronate (also known as hyaluronan) is similar to a substance that occurs naturally in the joints. It may work by acting as a lubricant and shock absorber in the joint, helping the knee to move smoothly, thereby lessening pain.
ORTHOVISC is an ultra-pure, high molecular weight injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) viscosupplement used to treat the joint pain caused by osteoarthritis. It is comprised of highly purified sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) in physiologic saline, and it is both biocompatible and resorbable.
ORTHOVISC is a non-animal sourced viscosupplement that may provide up to 6 months of efficacy with only 3 to 4 injections.1,2 The effectiveness of the ORTHOVISC treatment is partially based on the product’s delivery of one of the highest concentrations of HA (15 mg/mL) currently available in a multi-injection treatment.3
ORTHOVISC is provided in a single-use syringe, and it is injected into the joint in a series of 3 to 4 intra-articular injections spaced one week apart.
