How does MONOVISC® work?

Use one injection of MONOVISC® to give the joint lubrication and mechanical support, easing osteoarthritis symptoms like pain and inflammation. The hyaluronan component of this product replaces the decreased synovial fluid of the human joints. It restores the hydration and support that the joint needs for better bone health. It stops the pain and soreness caused by osteoarthritis. It reestablishes the mobility and flexibility of the knee joints. Moreover, MONOVISC® is also one of those alternative products given if other arthritis medications have not been so effective in providing long-lasting relief from knee pain.

The results of this one injection can last up to about six months. It is a safe and simple procedure. It is done by injecting it directly into the injection site or the knee joint using a fine needle. The patient may experience discomfort, but it’s only minimal and short.

Who uses this orthopedic treatment?

This treatment is suitable for adults and older people who are experiencing joint pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA). It is not recommended for usage to anyone who is 21 years old below. Aside from this restriction, it is also prohibited for patients who have an allergy to active ingredients of the medication (such as hyaluronic acid), pregnant patients (or those who have pregnancy suspicions), breast-feeding mothers, who have skin diseases or infections in the area of the injection site, and patients who may have bleeding or blood clotting disorder (such as hemophilia).
