What is Synvisc-One?

In knees with osteoarthritis, the joint fluid (called synovial fluid) can break down and not provide the cushioning your knee needs. Click the play button above to learn how Synvisc-One supplements your knee joint fluid to relieve the pain and improve your knee joint's natural shock absorbing abilities.

What is Synvisc-One made from?

The injection contains a gel-like mixture made from a substance called hyaluronan (pronounced hy-al-u-ROE-nan) that comes from chicken combs.

Hyaluronan is a natural substance found in the body and is present in very high amounts in joints. The body’s own hyaluronan acts like a lubricant and a shock absorber in the joint and is needed for the joint to work properly.

How do I know if I’m ready for Synvisc-One?
