*Please note all prices are in US dollars
Orthovisc (hyaluronic acid) is used to treat knee joint pain caused by osteoarthritis in patients who do not get adequate relief from simple pain relievers or exercise and physical therapy. Hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan) is a naturally occurring lubricant found in healthy knee joints. Othovisc is a viscosupplement that is fully biocompatible with natural hyaluronan.

Dosage

Orthovisc can only be administered by a doctor. The normal program is a weekly injection in the affected joint, for three or four consecutive weeks.

This text is for informational purposes only. Please consult a doctor or pharmacist before using any medication.

Read the information leaflet that comes with the medication.

Most people injected with Orthovisc do not experience any negative side effects. Doctors prescribe Orthovisc because they assess the benefits of such treatment outweigh any likely unwanted effects.

Some of the side effects that have been reported include pain, swelling, heat, rash, itching, bruising, or redness. These reactions are generally mild and should clear up easily.

Not all side effects are listed here. If these or other unlisted symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist.

People with osteoarthritis in the knee joints may not have been able to find pain relief with simple pain medication or exercise. Injections of Orthovisc can replace the missing hyaluronic acid, which acts as a lubricant and cushioning gel that separates the bones bearing weight in the knee. This can provide long-term or partial relief from pain and restore flexibility.

  • How successful are hyaluronic acid injections?
    The results of Orthovisc injections vary with each patient. Some people with knee osteoarthritis experience complete relief from their symptoms. In some others, there is temporary relief, but the pain returns within a year. Some people get no relief.
  • What are hyaluronan injections?
    Hyaluronan injections are used when other treatments haven't worked for people experiencing pain from osteoarthritis in the knee joints. Its effect is to keep joints moving and reduce pain.
  • How soon can I walk after a hyaluronic acid injection?
    Doctors will advise avoiding any strenuous activity that puts excess strain on the joint for at least two days after the injection. Normal activities like walking can be undertaken immediately after the injection. Do not soak the injection site for 24 hours.
  • Is orthovisc the same as hyaluronan?
    Orthovisc is made from hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronan is a natural chemical found in the body. High amounts of hyaluronan is found in joint tissues and in the fluid that fills the knee joints. It acts as a shock-absorber and lubricant. Orthovisc treats the pain caused by osteoarthritis of the knee. It is not a steroid injection.
