🌟 Arthrosamid® Injections
A New Era in Long-Term Knee Osteoarthritis Relief
At GB Clinics, we are proud to offer Arthrosamid®, a groundbreaking, non-biodegradable injectable hydrogel that provides long-lasting relief from knee osteoarthritis pain. Unlike traditional treatments such as corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid, Arthrosamid is designed to offer sustained symptom relief — potentially lasting years, not months — with just a single injection.
💡 What is Arthrosamid®?
Arthrosamid® is a unique polyacrylamide hydrogel consisting of 97.5% water and 2.5% cross-linked polyacrylamide. It is non-degradable, meaning it stays in the joint where it acts as a permanent joint cushion.
Once injected into the knee joint, Arthrosamid integrates into the synovial membrane (the joint lining), improving joint function, reducing inflammation, and offering long-term pain relief without the need for frequent repeat injections.
✅ Key Benefits of Arthrosamid®:
- Long-term relief from knee osteoarthritis pain
- A single injection can last up to several years
- Reduces stiffness and improves mobility
- Non-biodegradable – stays in the joint providing ongoing cushioning
- Excellent safety profile with minimal side effects
- Non-surgical, outpatient treatment with no general anaesthetic
🧬 How Does It Work?
Unlike corticosteroids, which reduce inflammation temporarily, or hyaluronic acid, which mimics natural joint fluid, Arthrosamid physically integrates into the joint lining. Its hydrogel structure creates a thick, durable cushion that:
- Restores lubrication
- Reduces joint friction
- Absorbs mechanical stress
- Modifies the internal joint environment
This leads to a significant reduction in knee pain, especially for those with moderate to severe osteoarthritis, and helps delay or avoid the need for joint replacement surgery.
🧪 What Does the Evidence Say?
Recent clinical studies have demonstrated:
- Sustained improvements in pain and joint function over 12 to 24 months
- High patient satisfaction with just one treatment
- Minimal side effects, primarily temporary post-injection discomfort
- Well-tolerated even in patients for whom other injectables (like HA or steroids) were no longer effective
Arthrosamid® has been CE-marked in Europe and is supported by a growing body of research as a safe and effective long-term therapy for knee OA.
🔍 Is Arthrosamid® Right for You?
Arthrosamid® may be ideal if you:
- Have been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis
- Continue to experience pain despite trying other treatments (e.g. HA, steroid, PRP)
- Are not ready or suitable for knee replacement surgery
- Want a low-maintenance, long-lasting option for joint pain relief
Our specialist clinicians will assess your condition through detailed consultation and imaging to determine if Arthrosamid is appropriate for you.
