Uses of Hyasyn Forte

Hyasyn Forte medicine has the main ingredient is Sodium hyaluronate 20mg/2ml. The drug is in the form of injections with each syringe.
Hyaluronic acid is an important component of connective tissue in the body, this substance is concentrated in high concentrations in synovial fluid and joint cartilage. Endogenous hyaluronic acid helps joint synovial fluid to be elastic and elastic. As a result, it can help lubricate joints and reduce impact from external shocks, and is also an important component of proteoglycan in articular cartilage.
When the patient has osteoarthritis, there is a decrease in both the quality and quantity of hyaluronic acid in the synovial fluid and in the articular cartilage. Therefore, the use of hyaluronic acid injections into degenerative joints will help improve joint function. The effect of exogenous hyaluronic acid may be related to its interaction with other components of the joint cavity (synoviocyte and chondrocyte).
In controlled clinical studies, an improvement in osteoarthritis symptoms was observed 6 – 12 months after the end of therapy with exogenous hyaluronic acid.
