What is Ostenil 3 Pre-filled syringes 20mg/2ml used for?
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease resulting from the progressive destruction of cartilage. This is accompanied by a deterioration in the synovial fluid, which loses its viscoelasticity, limiting its lubricating and cushioning role. As a result, movements become painful, mobility is reduced and joint comfort deteriorates. Faced with these symptoms, the use of a viscosupplementation solution such as Ostenil is an effective response to relieve pain and restore joint function.
Hyaluronic acid, a natural component of synovial fluid, plays an essential role in the proper functioning of stressed joints. Over time, its concentration diminishes, affecting mobility and promoting cartilage wear. Ostenil, a hyaluronic acid-based viscoelastic solution, is designed to restore synovial fluid quality and improve joint lubrication. Administered intra-articularly, it compensates for loss of viscosity and restores joints to their original suppleness.
Specifically, Ostenil is indicated in cases of joint pain and reduced mobility due to osteoarthritis or trauma. It is particularly useful for the knee, which bears a heavy daily load, but can also be used for other synovial joints. By improving the quality of synovial fluid, it helps prolong joint life and, in some cases, delays the need for more invasive treatments.
Pre-filled syringes facilitate safe administration by a healthcare professional. Each 2 ml syringe contains 20 mg sodium hyaluronate (1%), providing optimal viscoelasticity to restore joint function.
In short, Ostenil is a safe, effective solution for preventing joint stiffness, restoring fluid mobility and limiting the progression of osteoarthritis.
We also recommend Ostenil Plus 40 mg Solution Injectable 2 ml, at the best price in our online pharmacy.
How do I use this product?
Ostenil should be injected directly into the affected joint. The protocol recommends one injection per week for three weeks. If necessary, a new treatment cycle may be considered, depending on the patient's response.
Before administration, remove the pre-filled syringe from its sterile packaging, remove the cap from the Luer lock tip, attach a suitable needle (19 to 21 G) and check that it is securely in place. Before injection, purge any air bubbles from the syringe. The product and syringe remain sterile as long as the packaging is intact.
In the event of joint effusion, it is preferable to first reduce it by aspiration, cold application or corticosteroid injection. Ostenil injections can be resumed after 2 to 3 days.
