Gelsyn-3 (active ingredient: sodium hyaluronate) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  • Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Gelsyn-3 is used to provide relief from pain and improve joint function in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee by cushioning the joint and reducing friction.

Gelsyn-3 belongs to a class of drugs known as viscosupplements, which work by replenishing the natural lubricants in the joint, helping to reduce pain and improve mobility.

To use the prefilled syringe of Gelsyn-3, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional. However, here are some general guidelines:

  1. Check the syringe for any defects or damage before using it.
  2. Prepare the injection site by cleaning the skin with an antiseptic solution.
  3. Use the syringe to inject the full contents of the prefilled syringe into the knee joint.
  4. Discard the prefilled syringe and any unused portion of the medication properly, according to your healthcare provider’s instructions.
  5. Your healthcare provider may advise you to take it easy for a short time after the injection and may prescribe pain medication to manage any discomfort.

Always follow your doctor’s instructions and never self-administer Gelsyn-3 without consulting a healthcare professional first.
