Pharmacodynamics. Synovial fluid which is viscoelastic because of presence of hyaluronic acid is found in all synovial joints, in particular small joints where it provides the normal painless movement because of the greasing and shock-absorbing properties. She is also responsible for cartilage food.

In case of the frustration connected with the injured joints, for example osteoarthroses, viscoelasticity of synovial fluid is considerably reduced that reduces the greasing and shock-absorbing functions. It leads to increase in mechanical load of a joint and destruction of a cartilage that, eventually, leads to pain and limited mobility of the injured joint.

Addition of synovial fluid by means of intra joint injections of high cleaning hyaluronic acid can increase viscoelastic properties of synovial fluid. It increases the greasing and shock-absorbing functions and reduces mechanical load of a joint. As a rule, it leads to reduction of pain and increase in mobility of a joint which can last within, at least, several months after the medical cycle including three intra joint injections.
