RELYNART 1 Pre-filled Syringe 80mg 4ml

Relynart 80 Mg Sodium Hyaluronate for Intra-articular Use

Description
Relynart 80 mg is a biodegradable and isotonic sterile injectable gel for intra-articular use.
It consists of medium molecular weight sodium hyaluronate (1.0-1.5x10 ⁶ Dalton), produced by Streptococcus equi bacteria, formulated at a concentration of 20 mg/ml in a physiological buffer.
Thanks to its viscoelastic properties, it helps to normalize the viscosity of the synovial fluid present in the intra-articular cavity and restore the rheological conditions of the joints, altered in the case of degenerative or post-traumatic affections.
The product exerts a protective action on the joints and improves joint functionality, as well as reducing painful symptoms. It acts only at the level of the joint where it is injected, without exerting any systemic action.

Relynart 80 mg is a medical device in the category of health products.

Composition
Sodium hyaluronate (20 mg/ml), sodium chloride, monobasic sodium phosphate dihydrate, dibasic sodium phosphate dodecahydrate, water q.s.

Instructions for use
Remove any joint effusion before injecting Relynart 80 mg; the same needle should be used for the removal of the effusion and the injection.
Remove the protective cap from the syringe, taking care to avoid contact with the opening.
Firmly screw the needle (with a diameter between 18 and 22 G) onto the luer lock connector following the instructions. Before injection, treat the site with an appropriate disinfectant. Inject Relynart 80mg using aseptic technique. Inject only into the joint cavity.
It is recommended to carry out an initial cycle of three treatment sessions, at weekly intervals, followed possibly by maintenance sessions according to medical prescription.

Instructions for assembling the needle onto the syringe:
- carefully unscrew the cap from the tip of the syringe, taking care to avoid contact with the opening;
- gently grasp the needle protection and mount the needle on the luer-lock connector, screwing it firmly until a slight counter-pressure is felt to ensure a tight seal and prevent gel leakage during administration.

Infiltration should be avoided in case of ongoing infections or inflammatory conditions of the skin near the injection site.
It is recommended, after the intra-articular injection, to avoid strenuous physical activities for the joint and to resume normal activities after a couple of days.
