Hyalgan® contains hyaluronic acid which is a natural polymer of glycosaminoglycan that presents in joint cartilage and synovial fluid. The hyaluronic acid in Hyalgan® is processed by a patented molecular filtration procedure. The efficacy and safety of Hyalgan® for different OA joints, e.g. knee, ankle, shoulder, etc., are well-proven in numerous clinical studies. In OA patients, the molecular weight and concentration of the hyaluronic acid in the synovial fluid is lower compared to healthy joint and the protective effect to the joint is reduced. Hyalgan® injection replenishes and boosts the normal production of synovial fluid in joints. Therefore, pain and other symptoms can be relieved.
