DEVICE

Arthrosamid® 2.5% iPAAG injectable implant

Arthrosamid is a non-biodegradable, 2.5% polyacrylamide hydrogel (iPAAG) injection designed as a long-lasting, non-surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis. It acts as a synovial implant that provides cushioning, reduces pain, and improves mobility for up to 3-4 years, often delaying the need for knee replacement surgery.

DRUG

Steroid Drug

dexamethasone 8mg, methylprednisolone 80mg and bupivacaine 5ml 0.25%, intra articular injection
