How does OSTENIL work?

OSTENIL is a clear medicine which contains hyaluronate, a pure animal free substance that is completely biocompatible and imitates the lubricant in the joint. In osteoarthritis, the synovial fluid at the knee joint is much less with no lubrication. This makes the joints largely susceptible to any pain as there is no barrier to cushion the bones. The hyaluronate reduces the pressure on the knee joint allowing it to move freely without pain.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural substance found inside the human body. It’s key properties are to act as a shock absorber. HA naturally breaks down in the body during metabolism and is then replaced. However as we get older and our metabolism slows down, replacement of HA is less often which results in less viscoelasticity, resulting in breakdown of the bone and pain as it grinds against the skin.

The antioxidant (Mannitol) plays an important role to eliminate the distressing effects of free radicals on the skin dermis, whilst stopping any gel degradation from occurring and the risk of post-injection inflammation.

How long will Ostenil provide pain relief?

The treatment can last for 12 months.
