Suplasyn is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis. Suplasyn has been shown to be beneficial in osteoarthritis for the management of pain and improvement in physical function of joints. Depending upon joint size, up to 2ml may be administrated intraarticulary. Use strict aseptic technique. More than one joint may be treated at the same time. Discard any unused portion of the syringe. To use the prefilled syringe, remove the Luer lock cap, attach a suitable cannula (recommended is 21-25G depending on joint) and secure it by turning slightly.
Hyaluronic acid is the prototype of a wide range of saccharide biopolymers (glycosaminoglycan sot mucopolysaccharides), important components of all extracellular tissue structures, including cartilage and synovial fluid. The active substance of Suplasyn is a hyaluronic acid of defined molecular chain length with a high degree of purity. The introduction of Suplasyn into the synovial space will assist in the normalization of the joint following arthrocentesis.
