If you have osteoarthritis of the knee, your healthcare provider may recommend treatment with Synvisc-One® (Hylan G-F 20). This product comes in the form of a gel-like liquid that is injected directly into the knee joint. One injection can help relieve pain for up to six months. To help ensure your safety, make sure your healthcare provider is aware of all your medications and any other medical conditions you have (such as a knee infection) before starting treatment.
