Euflexxa® Main Benefits
Euflexxa® is a sterile, transparent viscoelastic gel that brings long-lasting relief to osteoarthritis-affected knee joints. Aging individuals who constantly perform rigorous physical activities or lifts excess weight have higher chances of damaging their cartilage and losing their synovial fluid, triggering the onset of osteoarthritis. Help them recover from this loss by administering this non-avian sourced hyaluronate solution into the joint to add extra lubrication. Not only does it restore mobility and flexibility to the troubled joint, but also, it reduces pain and delays the need for reconstructive surgery. With clinically proven safety and efficacy, you can trust this viscosupplement to improve your patient’s quality of life after just 3 Euflexxa® injections.
Euflexxa® Ingredients
This formula contains sodium hyaluronate (10mg/mL), water for injections, sodium chloride, sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate, and disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate.
Ingredients Information
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that happens when the cartilage, or the cushioning tissue of the knees, begins to wear down due to age, excess physical activity or pressure from excess weight. With this, the joint fluid, which is responsible for lubricating the knee joint, becomes thinner and loses its ability to protect the surrounding bone. This causes the knee to become stiff and painful.
Hyaluronic acid makes up a large part of the joint fluid. Although it is naturally found in the body, its concentration gradually decreases with age. This loss of hyaluronic acid contributes to the lost of joint fluid’s integrity.
As a gel, the high molecular weight (2.4–3.6 million daltons) sodium hyaluronate in this phosphate-buffered saline implant can replenish the lost hyaluronic acid. This highly purified biofermented compound is also biocompatible and non-carcinogenic, which means it will not cause mutagenic reactions or rejection. The safe integration of the thick, slippery gel into the body delivers quick support and relief to the affected joint, as it replaces the lost joint fluid. It provides extra padding in between the affected bones, which will reduce the occurrence of any painful, abrasive friction. Clearly, this treatment will enhance your patient’s quality of life.
Other ingredients in this formula help to ensure that the hyaluronate acid remains in its most optimal and sterile form.
