What is Euflexxa used for?
Euflexxa is an elastic, sterile, gel-like product that contains highly purified, natural hyaluronan. Hyaluronan is a natural substance found in the body which is highly present in joint tissues and in the fluid that fills the joints. Your body’s own hyaluronan acts like a shock absorber and a lubricant in your joint. It’s crucial for your joints to function properly. Euflexxa is used for the relief of knee pain due to osteoarthritis and is used for those who don’t get enough pain relief from other pain medications. Osteoarthritis is a condition involving the gradual wearing down of cartilage. When someone has osteoarthritis there might be a decrease in the quality or amount of hyaluronan present in the joints.Unfortunately, Euflexxa is currently discontinued by Manufacturer. Alternatively you can buy Durolane Syringe online.

How to Use Euflexxa?
Each Euflexxa package is manufactured using aseptic filling techniques. If the blister package is damaged or open do not use. If present, remove joint effusion. Peel off the blister packaging and use the syringe immediately. Remove the cap at the tip of the Euflexxa syringe and attach a sterile needle. Apply gentle pressure to the plunger so that you can verify the Euflexxa syringe is properly working and dispel any air. Inject intra-articularly into the knee as directed by your doctor (ask them for the full use instructions) and inject the full contents of the syringe. If using for both knees get a separate syringe for each knee, never resterilize your syringes.
