C1+NGAL

FAST ACTING. LONG LASTING.

CINGAL is the first and only approved viscosupplement that represents a combination of cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) and the fast-acting corticosteroid Triamcinolone Hexacetonide (TH) for the long-term elimination of osteoarthritis symptoms, approved by the FDA.

The corticosteroid reduces inflammation in the knee joint, providing rapid pain relief after injection, with the hyaluronic acid component providing long-term pain relief, proven to last for 6 months[1].

The corticosteroid Triamcinolone Hexacetonide (TH) acts rapidly on the inflammatory process [2,3]

TH reduces the production of destructive inflammatory cytokines and reduces their harmful effect[2,3]

  • High in HA concentration
  • Proven pain relief for 6 months[1]
