Why choose Euflexxa?
Euflexxa delivers SATISFUNCTION™
Euflexxa is a hyaluronic acid (HA) therapy—a different kind of treatment for mild to moderate pain from osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee—in other words, the earliest stages of OA knee pain. Euflexxa is an effective injection your doctor gives you once a week for 3 weeks. It can provide pain relief for several months. Unlike pills, Euflexxa is localized therapy, which means it goes right to the source of pain and is not distributed throughout your entire body. Many patients are happy with the way that Euflexxa helps them to maintain an active lifestyle. To learn more, visit our Patient Testimonials section.

How is Euflexxa different?
Euflexxa is an injection that treats osteoarthritis (OA) pain at its source. This means that, unlike pills, Euflexxa is not distributed throughout your entire body. Euflexxa is, when used as directed, an effective hyaluronic acid (HA) treatment for OA knee pain that is proven to lessen pain and improve function. Most people who received Euflexxa in a clinical trial were “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with treatment. Patients have shared stories about their ability to maintain active lifestyles after receiving Euflexxa therapy. To learn more, visit our Patient Testimonials section.
Euflexxa is different from some other HA therapies because it is not made from processed rooster combs, which may be problematic in people who are allergic to poultry products (including eggs and feathers). Euflexxa, however, is made differently, from an all-natural source. It is free of animal proteins and is therefore safe to use in people who are allergic to poultry products.
Also, unlike other HA therapies that may require 5 injections, Euflexxa is proven to work in just 3 injections (once a week for 3 weeks).
EUFLEXXA (1% sodium hyaluronate) is used to relieve knee pain due to osteoarthritis. It is used in people who do not get enough relief from simple pain medications such as acetaminophen or from exercise and physical therapy.
