Hyaluronic acid is a molecule found naturally throughout the human body. It is an important component of joint fluid, called synovial fluid, which provides lubrication and cushioning for normal, healthy knees.

When you have osteoarthritis of the knee, the hyaluronic acid breaks down and becomes diluted, reducing its natural elastic properties, which can further degrade cartilage tissue and cause increased joint pain.28

Administered as a series of 3 injections directly into the knee (one every 7 days), GELSYN-3 works to increase the levels of healthy hyaluronic acid in the affected joint.28 Your doctor will monitor your progress between injections. The hyaluronic acid in GELSYN-3, which has the same composition as the natural hyaluronic acid your body produces, safely reduces joint pain and stiffness, while restoring protective lubrication and protection benefits.33
