In the European Economic Area and other parts of the world, CINGAL is indicated as a viscoelastic supplement or a replacement for synovial fluid in human joints. CINGAL is well suited for rapid and long term relief of the symptoms of human joint dysfunctions such as osteoarthritis. The actions of CINGAL are long term relief of symptoms by lubrication and mechanical support supplemented by short-term pain relief provided by triamcinolone hexacetonide.
In Canada, CINGAL is indicated for the treatment of pain in osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in patients who have failed to respond adequately to conservative non-pharmacologic therapy and to simple analgesics (e.g. acetaminophen). CINGAL includes an ancillary steroid to provide additional short term pain relief.
CINGAL is not approved for use in the United States.
