In Osteoarthritic Knees, the pathologic changes of the synovial fluid cause it to lose its lubricity and shock absorbing function. This leads to the concept of Viscosupplement.

The goal of viscosupplement is to improve the viscoelasticity of synovial fluid, replicating healthy joint function by increasing the molecular weight and concentration of Hyaluronic Acid (HA).

INDICATION FOR VISCOSUPPLEMENT
Early and Moderate Stage Osteoarthritis

MONOVISC is designed to deliver the highest dose of HA in a Single Injection*

MONOVISC is a single injection administered directly into your knee joint by a healthcare professional. MONOVISC restores the natural joint fluid (hyaluronan) that cushions, protects and lubricates your knee joint. With better cushioning, your knee can move and function better.

MONOVISC contains the highest concentration of hyaluronan available for a single injection. It’s the only non- avian single HA injection available on the market. MONOVISC closely matches healthy synovial fluid, and has an optimum molecular weight and a proven safety profile.
