Ostenil PLUS Syringe 2 ml

Indication

Pain and restricted mobility in degenerative and traumatic changes of the knee joint and other synovial joints.

Composition

Hyaluronic acid 40 mg in 2 ml syringe. 1ml isotonic solution (pH 7.3) contains 20.0mg sodium hyaluronate from fermentation and sodium chloride, sodium monohydrogenphosphate, sodium dihydrogenphosphate, mannitol and water for injection.

Dosage and administration

Inject Ostenil Plus into the affected joint. Several joints may be treated at the same time. Repeat treatment cycles may be administered as required. In case of joint effusion it is advisable to reduce the effusion by aspiration, rest, application of an ice pack and/or intra-articular corticosteroid injection. Treatment with Ostenil Plus can be started two to three days later. The content and the outer surface of the Ostenil Plus prefilled syringe are sterile as long as the sterile pack remains unbroken. Take the pre-filled syringe out of the sterile pack. Before usage of the pre-filled syringe the tamper-evident seal has to be tilted up. As a result the crosspieces of the tamperevident seal break and the cap can be removed together with the tip cap (see pictures). Attach a suitable needle (for example 18 to 25G) and secure it by turning slightly. If present remove the air bubble from the syringe prior to injection.
