EUFLEXXA is a type of knee joint injection that is used to treat knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. It is a viscosupplementation therapy that contains hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that is naturally found in the synovial fluid that surrounds the joints. The injection is designed to help lubricate and cushion the knee joint, which can reduce pain and improve mobility.

The injection is typically given as a series of three injections, each one week apart. During the procedure, the knee joint is cleaned and sterilized, and the injection is administered directly into the joint using a thin needle. The injection itself takes only a few minutes to administer, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.

EUFLEXXA is specifically indicated for the treatment of knee pain in patients with osteoarthritis who have not responded to other treatments such as pain medications, physical therapy, or exercise. It is not recommended for use in patients who are allergic to hyaluronate products, or who have infections or skin diseases around the injection site. As with any medical treatment, it is important to discuss the risks and benefits of EUFLEXXA injections with a healthcare provider before undergoing the procedure.
