Introduction to Genom Visc 60mg Injection
Genom Visc Injection contains the active ingredient Sodium Hyaluronate. It belongs to a class of analgesics used to relieve pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee. This medicine works by improving lubrication and cushioning in the knee joint, making movement easier and less painful. Patients with joint inflammation or existing allergies to the components of the injection should inform their doctor before starting treatment.
