Injectable Solution for intra-articular administration
Composition
Highly viscous aqueous solution of a defined molecular fraction of purified
hyaluronic acid. One preloaded
Properties
Hyaluronic acid is the
prototype of a wide range of saccharide biopolymers (glycosaminoglycans or
mucopolysaccharides), important components of all extra cellular tissue
structures, including cartilage and synovial fluid. The active substance of
HYALOVET is a specific hyaluronic acid fraction of defined molecular chain
length (2500-3500 saccharide units) with a high degree of purity, which
possesses particular biochemical, chemical-physical and pharmacological
properties.
The intra-articular injection
of this biological substance into the diseased Horse joint results in improved
joint function thanks to the normalization of the viscoelastic properties of
synovial fluid and the activation of tissue repair processes in articular
cartilage.
Indications
Horse joint disease due to:
*Osteoarthrosis
with or without inflammatory signs,
*Acute or chronic
synovitis,
*Degenerative
