Arthrosamid® and Knee Osteoarthritis
The key component of Arthrosamid® is a hydrogel based on a cross-linked polyacrylamide backbone. This hydrogel is non-biodegradable and primarily composed of water, with 97.5% water content. When injected into the knee joint by a specialist, the hydrogel acts as a cushion and lubricant, providing support and reducing friction within the joint.
The main goal of Arthrosamid® is to alleviate pain and stiffness associated with knee osteoarthritis. The hydrogel's cushioning and lubricating properties help to improve joint mobility and reduce discomfort. Importantly, a single injection of Arthrosamid® has the potential to provide sustained pain relief for up to 2 years.
It's important to note that while Arthrosamid® offers a non-surgical alternative for knee osteoarthritis treatment, its effectiveness and suitability may vary for each individual.
