Hello,
Hyalgan is kind of drug that belongs to the class of analgesic. IT is made up of a natural and highly purified sodium Hyalgan that comes from rooster combs. Hyaluronate is a natural chemical present in the joints of the human body.
It acts like a lubricant and a shock absorber in the joint. Hyalgan is very necessary for the joint to work properly.
Hyalgan is mainly indicated to relieve knee pain due to Osteoarthritis. It is beneficial especially to patients who do not get adequate relief from simple painkillers or from exercise and physical therapy.
Take care and have a nice day.-
