Main Benefits

The main benefits of Cingal injections are short-term or immediate pain relief and long-term improvement in lubrication of the knee-joints and the resulting improvement in knee function. Apart from providing lubrication to the synovial compartment, Cingal also helps improve the synovial joints’ shock absorbing capability.

Ingredients

A syringe of Cingal® contains 88mg of sodium hyaluronate and 18mg of triamcinolone in a sterile composition.

Ingredients Information

Sodium hyaluronate is a viscosupplement and triamcinolone hexacetonide is the steroid component. Combine, these ingredients provide pain relief within 24 hours of the injection being administered to the knee joints.
When injected into the affected knee-joints, sodium hyaluronate replenishes the viscous content in the synovial spaces within the knees. Similarly, triamcinolone hexacetonide steroid provides pain-relief almost immediately (within 24 hours) after being injected into the knee.
