Orthovisc is a viscous (thick) sterile mixture made from highly purified hyaluronan dissolved in saline. Hyaluronan is a natural chemical found in the joint fluid of your body. The bodys own hyaluronan acts like a lubricant and a shock absorber in the joint. It is needed for the joint to work properly.
Orthovisc is used to relieve knee pain due to osteoarthritis. Orthovisc is used for patients who do not get adequate pain relief from simple pain relievers like acetaminophen or from exercise and physical therapy.
Orthovisc is injected using a simple, noninvasive procedure called viscsupplementation. The procedure is performed by an orthopaedic surgeon, rheumatologist, or other qualified health professional. The doctor prepares the patient’s knee with a local anesthetic, then injects Orthovisc directly into the knee joint where it combines with the existing synovial fluid. Orthovisc acts specifically in the knee joints, so it will not interfere with any other medications the patient is taking.
