Gel-One® Hyaluronate Injectable Knee Pain Therapy

Overview

What’s Causing My Knee Pain?

If your knees ache, they have lots of company. Over 54 million Americans suffer from osteoarthritis.1

Osteoarthritis causes the lubricating properties of the fluid in the knee joint to diminish, resulting in less protection and cushioning. In addition, osteoarthritis of the knee results in damage to the cushioning (cartilage) resulting in pain.

Gel-One® Hyaluronate injectable knee pain treatment addresses the pain caused by the diminishing lubricant in the joint and can provide significant relief for up to 6 months per treatment.2,3*

Gel-One® Frequently Asked Questions

Gel-One Hyaluronate therapy relieves knee pain due to osteoarthritis. 

Hyaluronan, the key ingredient in Gel-One, is a natural substance found in the fluid within your joints. The body’s own hyaluronan acts like a lubricant and shock absorber in the knee joint and is needed for the joint to work properly. 

Gel-One therapy is used for patients who have failed to respond adequately to other therapies, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, e.g. Ibuprofen), or simple pain relievers (Acetaminophen, e.g. Tylenol).
