Suplasyn Manufacturer:
Teva UK LtdSuplasyn Information:
Suplasyn relieves pain occurring due to osteoarthritis and restores joint function. It is a sterile solution of Sodium Hyaluronate in its highly purified form. It is administered either as a single injection or repeated injections, generally 3, at weekly intervals. Suplasyn increases the joint's usual lubrication, thus providing pain relief and increasing a patient’s mobility. It is especially useful for patients affected with early stages of osteoarthritis, where the physical damage has not advanced to a great degree. Apart from using it in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee, doctors can also advise patients suffering from rhizarthrose or OA of the toe to buy Suplasyn.
Description of Suplasyn:
The process of bio-fermentation is used to produce Suplasyn, which minimizes the risk of allergy to foreign proteins or cross-species contamination. This solution of Sodium Hyaluronate is non-heat-degraded, non-avian-derived, and is sterilized by aseptic filtration. The viscoelastic properties of this drug are similar to that of synovial fluid.
Advantages of Suplasyn:
Given below are some of the prominent advantages of using Suplasyn injection-
- It assists in the normalization of rheological properties and functions of the joint.
- It acts locally and directly within the affected joint and brings about quick pain relief. However, it should be noted that though symptoms may subside rapidly, it takes a few weeks after the treatment to experience the full benefits.
- This medication can act as an alternative to analgesics or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs as these can sometimes cause unwanted side effects.
- Unlike other Sodium Hyaluronate products that are derived from animal extracts and bear the risk of cross species contamination, Suplasyn is produced by bio-fermentation, thus minimizing such risks.
- Since sterile filtration is used for sterilizing Suplasyn, it doesn’t run the risk of being exposed to high heat as in terminal sterilization, which would have lead to molecule degradation.
- Since Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of a natural component of several tissues of the body, it is very well-tolerated when Suplasyn injection is administered into the intra-articular space.
How Suplasyn Works:
Suplasyn increases the levels of the natural lubricant artificially when it is introduced into the synovial space, thus offering lubrication and relief to the joints plagued by osteoarthritis. One injection is administered every week for three weeks, after which the patient’s doctor will decide if additional injections are needed. Most patients experience joint function improvement and pain relief, which lasts for a minimum of 6 months to a maximum of 12 months. However, this entirely depends on the severity of the disease and the condition of the individual patient.
Safety & Precautionary Information:
Patients should avoid any strenuous activity within the first 24 hours after being given the injection. Those with known hypersensitivity reactions should not be advised to buy Suplasyn. Some patients may experience a mild local reaction like heat, pain, as well as swelling and redness at the injection site after the drug has been injected. Fever is another common side effect of this medication. Usually, these symptoms will disappear quickly within a few days and without any consequence. However, if they persist or turn severe, the doctor should be consulted immediately.
