Properties
HYAFLEX is indicated in the treatment of joint pain or stiffness due to degenerative or post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the knee as a replacement or addition to non-pharmacological, traditional treatment or analgesic treatment. All synovial joints, particularly the weight-bearing joints, contain viscoelastic hyaluronic acid. That substance has lubricating and shock-absorbing properties. By reducing the load on cartilage, it can renew itself and consequently slow down the progression of osteoarthritis.
Active ingredients
The hyaluronic acid (molecular mass 650 ~ 1200 kDa) in HYAFLEX is a natural polysaccharide derived from microorganisms (Streptococcus zooepidemicus) that has been subsequently purified.
How to use
HYAFLEX must be administered by a physician:
- HYAFLEX is injected into the joint cavity to restore joint fluid.
- It is recommended to administer 3 injections per treatment (1 x per week).
- The dosage and number of injections depend on the severity of the patient’s symptoms.
- The effects of treatment may persist for at least 6 months after a series of 3 injections of HYAFLEX.
Ingredients
Single-use glass syringe containing 2.5 ml of product in a sterile package: 1 ml HYAFLEX contains 10.0 mg of sodium hyaluronate dissolved in physiological saline solution (pH between 6.8 and 7.8).
