HYLARTIN® V
(sodium hyaluronate) INJECTION

Undisputed Heavyweight Champion for Equine Lameness

HYLARTIN® V (sodium hyaluronate) Injection helps heal horses' joints. It lubricates joint tissues, reduces friction and improves joint action. HYLARTIN V is the heavyweight joint therapy champion, preferred by professionals who demand the most performance and protection available.

Indications

HYLARTIN V is indicated in horses for the intra-articular treatment of non-infectious inflammatory joint disease.


Key Features

  • HYLARTIN V, injected directly into the inflamed joint, lubricates the joint, reduces friction and improves joint motion.

  • HYLARTIN V goes straight to the problem area.

  • HYLARTIN V replenishes natural hyaluronate and stimulates the production of natural hyaluronate for long-term recovery.
Packaging

Disposable glass syringe containing 20 mg (10 mg/mL) of sodium hyaluronate in 2.0 mL physiological sodium chloride-phosphate buffer.

Dosage/Administration

Your veterinarian will inject 2 mL (20 mg) of HYLARTIN V intra-articularly in small- and medium-size joints (carpal, fetlock) or 4 mL (40 mg) for larger joints (hock). These treatments may be repeated at weekly intervals for a total of three treatments.

Precaution

As with all intra-articular injections, occasional mild side effects may include heat, transient edema and pain around the injection site.

Not for use in horses intended for food.

Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.
