Hialuron turşusu əsasən osteoartrozların müalicəsində istifadə olunur.Preparat daha çox diz oynağı artrozlarının müalicəsində istifadə edilir.Hyaluronic acid (brand names Synvisc, Osteoartz) is used to treat osteoarthritis, a condition that affects the joints. It is mos In a normal joint a layer of cartilage or gristle covers the ends of the bones. Cartilage helps the joint move smoothly and cushions the ends of the bones. In osteoarthritis cartilage breaks down and becomes thin. This leaves the ends of the bones unprotected and the joint loses its ability to move smoothly. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in joints and other parts of the body. In the joint it is found in the cartilage and the synovial fluid that lubricate the joints to keep them working smoothly. In people with osteoarthritis the hyaluronic acid gets thinner and it is no longer able to protect the joint. Injections of artificial hyaluronic acid into affected joints may improve the protection. Hyaluronic acid injections are usually offered to people with osteoarthritis of the knee if other treatments have not worked or are unsuitable.

What benefit can you expect from your treatment? Hyaluronic acid injections help reduce the pain caused by osteoarthritis. Some patients find relief from symptoms within a few days. Full benefits usually are reached 3-5 weeks after the treatment. The treatment may provide pain relief for up to 6 months. Response varies and the injections do not help everyone. If successful the injections can be repeated after 6 months. How is hyaluronic acid given? Your doctor will inject the hyaluronic acid directly into the knee joint. Local anaesthetic is sometimes used before the injection. Injections may be given once a week for three weeks or a single injection depending on the particular product your doctor recommends. Can other medicines be taken with hyaluronic acid? Hyaluronic acid may be used with other arthritis medicines including:

 steroid medicines such as prednisolone or cortisone injections into the joint

 anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs) such as naproxen (Naprosyn) or ibuprofen (Brufen, Nurofen)
