Orthovisc General Information
Orthovisc is a prescription substance that is used as an injectable form of medication at many doctor's offices and it is a medication that can also be obtained by patients that obtain a prescription from their doctor for an individual that would prefer using this type of injection at home. Orthovisc is often used for self-administered injections in patients that are suffering from the pain and the discomfort that is commonly associated with osteoarthritis. This form of injections is generally not administered by a physician or prescribed to a patient until the patient has already tried a variety of other forms of treatment options first, without achieving any type of relief from the pain that they are experiencing. Orthovisc is known as a hyaluronic acide derivative and it is used in shots that are injected directly into the joints of the patient's knees. It works because of its ability in effectiveness in being able to increase the job of the natural fluid that is located in the knee joint of the patient. Orthovisc works at providing the patient with shock absorbency and as being a lubrication that is needed so no pain or discomfort occurs due to the joints rubbing together.
