MONOVISC® is a single-injection hyaluronic acid (HA) viscosupplement designed to provide long-lasting relief from knee osteoarthritis pain. Its high–molecular weight, non–avian HA formulation helps restore lubrication and cushioning within the joint, reducing friction and improving mobility in patients seeking a convenient, non-surgical treatment option.

Key Benefits
• Single-injection treatment for fast, convenient therapy
• Long-lasting pain relief for knee osteoarthritis
• High–molecular weight hyaluronic acid for enhanced cushioning
• Improves joint lubrication and reduces friction during movement
• Ideal for patients not responding adequately to oral medications or physical therapy

How It Works
MONOVISC® supplements the diminished synovial fluid in osteoarthritic knees with a viscoelastic HA solution similar to naturally occurring joint fluid. This improves the viscosity, elasticity, and shock absorption of the joint, reducing mechanical stress and helping to relieve pain during daily movement.

Ideal Candidates
Adults with knee osteoarthritis experiencing persistent pain, stiffness, or reduced function despite conservative treatments.
Suited for patients seeking a single-dose, minimally invasive alternative before surgery is considered.

Administration
Administered as one intra-articular injection by a qualified medical professional.
Pain relief may begin within days and can last up to six months or longer, depending on patient factors, severity of osteoarthritis, and lifestyle.

Possible Side Effects
Temporary side effects may include mild swelling, warmth, discomfort, or stiffness at the injection site. Occasional localized inflammation or joint effusion may occur but is usually short-lived. Serious reactions are rare when performed by an experienced practitioner.
