HYALGAN 20MG contains Sodium hyaluronate which belongs to the group of medicine called viscoelastic supplements. It is used to treat pain in knee osteoarthritis among patients who have failed to respond adequately to simple analgesics and conservative non-pharmacologic therapy. Sodium hyaluronate is available as a salt form of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural polysaccharide present in very high amounts in the synovial fluid (fluid surrounding the joint) and acts as a lubricant and shock absorber in between joints.

People with knee osteoarthritis suffer a very low concentration of hyaluronic acid in their synovial fluid. Intra-articular administration of HYALGAN 20MG supplements hyaluronic acid to the synovial fluid and lubricates and cushions the joint. It also provides relief from joint friction and pain. It helps in absorption of shock created from normal physical activity like walking, running, jumping etc. This medicine should only be given as an intra-articular injection (in between joints). People taking this injection, or any other visco-supplementation should be advised to avoid any prolonged (for more than an hour) or strenuous activities (like lifting heavy weights, running, jumping) within 48 hours following intra-articular injection. Before administration, remove any joint effusion if present.
