Arthrosamid Injections
REDEFINING KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS TREATMENT
Arthrosamid® is a cutting-edge injectable hydrogel that provides long-lasting relief from knee osteoarthritis (OA) pain—without surgery.
With 8.5 million people in the UK suffering from knee OA, many face daily pain and mobility challenges. Traditional treatments offer only temporary relief, often leaving surgery as the final option. However, Arthrosamid® changes the landscape. As the first and only permanent injectable treatment, it has been clinically proven to deliver significant pain reduction lasting at least four years.
Unlike steroids or hyaluronic acid injections, Arthrosamid® integrates with the knee’s synovial tissue to form a long-term cushioning effect, offering patients a real alternative to surgery. Leading experts call it a “game-changer” in OA treatment.
What is Osteoarthritis?
Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is a long-term condition where the shock-absorbing cartiliage is worn away causing bones to rub together and the joint to become stiff, swollen and painful. The knee joint worsens over time resulting in synovial pain and disability.
Despite OA being the most common type of arthritis and the fastest growing cause of disability worldwide, the treatment area has seen minimal progression in the last 20 years. With so little known about exactly what causes knee OA, a permanent cure has yet to be discovered.

The Treatment Process
Treatment with Arthrosamid® is a simple, one-step out-patient procedure — which doesn’t involve the disruptive recovery period usually associated with surgery.
​
Before treatment with Arthrosamid®, you will have a local anaesthetic to numb the area around your knee. You should also be given antibiotics ahead of this to protect you from any potential risk of infection.
Your knee is cleaned prior to treatment. Arthrosamid® is then singularly injected into your knee’s synovial cavity. This is sometimes performed with the help of ultrasound. The needle is then removed and a plaster is placed over the injection site. Arthrosamid® distributes within the synovial fluid and begins to stick to and mesh with the synovial tissue.
