Hyalgan Injection (Hyaluronic Acid 20mg) is a viscosupplement used to relieve pain in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee who have not responded adequately to other non-pharmacologic treatments or simple analgesics. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the joints that acts as a lubricant and shock absorber, allowing for smoother joint movement and reduced pain. When injected into the knee, Hyalgan supplements the decreased hyaluronic acid levels in the joint due to osteoarthritis, improving joint function and reducing discomfort. The treatment typically involves a series of injections directly into the knee joint, and it can offer relief for several months. This minimally invasive therapy provides an alternative for patients who are not ready for or cannot undergo knee replacement surgery
