What accessories come when you buy Orthovisc?

Each package of Orthovisc contains:

• 1-2ml prefilled syringe;
• 1 package insert;
• And a set of traceability labels.

What are the benefits of treatment with this intra-articular syringe?

Orthovisc is an injectable, clear, viscoelastic solution indicated for relieving osteoarthritis pain. Orthovisc’s main ingredient is ultra-pure, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which is similar to the hyaluronic acid normally found in the synovial fluid of the joints.

Unlike some forms of hyaluronic acid, Orthovisc is made in the lab from bacterial fermentation, making it a non-animal-sourced hyaluronic acid injection therapy. This means it is less likely to cause allergic reactions in clients with egg or bird allergies. Orthovisc® treatment can provide up to six months of knee pain relief, supporting overall joint health.

How does Orthovisc work for pain relief?

Hyaluronic acid breaks down within the body as it ages. As this cushioning layer is lost from the knee, the bones in the joint start to rub together, causing inflammation and pain. Orthovisc is the ideal treatment for patients experiencing pain and discomfort due to synovial joint dysfunctions.

When you inject this solution into your patient’s knee, the joint is given the lubrication and cushioning it needs to function in a pain-free manner. This pain relief can last up to around 6 months before another Orthovisc treatment is needed.

What are the ingredients of this formulation?

The Orthovisc syringe contains 15mg/ml of sodium hyaluronate, which makes it practical for pain relief. This ingredient is used to treat knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. 

How to inject/administer the product?

Only a doctor is allowed to use an Orthovisc injection. Orthovisc is injected into the joint via intra-articular administration using an 18–21G needle. The volume of product to be used will vary depending upon the size of the joint, although it should not exceed 2ml for the knee. Any joint effusion should be removed before injecting Orthovisc. A suitable anesthetic may be administered before the treatment for the patient’s comfort.

When should I use this as a treatment?

Doctors recommend a treatment regimen of 3 injections spaced 1 week apart for each treatment course. Do not exceed one treatment course for any joint in 6 months to treat pain.

What areas can I treat with this product?

In the United States and Canada, Orthovisc knee injection may only be used to manage joint pain caused by knee osteoarthritis.

How long do results last?

An Orthovisc injection can offer clients pain relief from osteoarthritis discomfort for about 6 months after their initial three weekly injections. For pain relief, prescribing information must be followed strictly. 

Who is an ideal candidate for Orthovisc injections?

A doctor prescribes viscosupplementation to patients when other osteoarthritis therapies, such as anti-inflammatory and pain relief products, physical therapy, and exercise, no longer work. You can give your patients Orthovisc injections as a last resort to replace other therapies or supplement other osteoarthritis therapies with Orthovisc injections. Doctors should know not to use Orthovisc injections on patients with a known sensitivity to any ingredients contained in Orthovisc or those allergic to gram-positive bacterial proteins.

Why should I buy Orthovisc?

With extensive clinical research supporting its safety and effectiveness, Orthovisc is the ideal treatment for patients experiencing pain and discomfort due to synovial joint dysfunctions such as osteoarthritis. For reliable treatment results and more information, you can buy Orthovisc from a trusted source.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects of Orthovisc injection may include bruising, swelling, redness, or a hot sensation at the injection site. Your patients could also feel achy or have temporary knee inflammation after treatment. Because the hyaluronic acid in Orthovisc is similar to that found naturally in the body, it should not cause an allergic reaction after use. If any adverse effects are observed, consult a doctor immediately for further information. You can buy Orthovisc from a trusted source for reliable and effective treatment.
