Estimated life span: 6 to 12 months on averageWhat is NeoViscŪ?NeoViscŪ is a 1.0% solution of highly purified Sodium Hyaluronate, a natural viscosupplement for the treatment of Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. NeoViscŪ is manufactured by Stellar Pharmaceuticals Inc. and has been clinically available in Canada since 1997.
What does NeoViscŪ do?NeoViscŪ works as a viscosupplement by improving the natural viscosity and elasticity of synovial fluid, thereby increasing lubrication, improving joint mobility and reducing pain. To illustrate it simply, think of an injection of NeoViscŪ as putting oil on a rusty hinge.
How is NeoViscŪ administered and how long does it last?NeoViscŪ is administrated by a physician through a series of injections into the synovial space of the joint. Typically one injection is given per week, over a 15 day period for a total of three injections. The onset of relief varies from patient to patient depending on the severity of the Osteoarthritis. Some experience improvement after the second injection, while the best results are usually seen 15 to 30 days after the last injection. Patients with more severe Osteoarthritis may experience greater benefit from a series of five weekly NeoViscŪ injections.
It is believed that a course of viscosupplementation with NeoViscŪ (Hyaluronate) stimulates cells in joint tissues to produce their own healthy hyaluronate, extending the therapeutic benefit for an average of 6 to 12 months, at which time a repeat treatment of NeoViscŪ injections should be administered.
Will NeoViscŪ work for me?NeoViscŪ works best for patients who are suffering from mild to moderate Osteoarthritis. Viscosupplement treatments are not appropriate for all OA patients, and should be discussed with your doctor.
Are NeoViscŪ injections painful?There may be a mild and short-lasting discomfort during the injection. It is best to discuss any concerns with your physician and the possible use of a local anaesthetic.
Are there any side effects from NeoViscŪ?Hyaluronate is a natural component of synovial fluid and there have been no significant adverse reactions attributable to the high purified Sodium Hyaluronate used in NeoViscŪ.
However, as with any injection, there may be the occurrence of transient pain at the injection site. Should the injected joint become swollen, or remain painful for more than twelve hours, contact your physician immediately.
How does NeoViscŪ compare to other Viscosupplements?There are no known significant differences in treatment outcome from any of the Hyaluronate products presently available in Canada. NeoViscŪ, however, is the most cost effective therapy and can cost substantially less than other competitive hyaluronate products.
