Arthrosamid. Have tried to find solid evidence based search on this non-biodegradable because I too have severe knee osteoarthritis and am possibly facing a knee replacement.
Injections of anything only relieve symptoms and not solve the problem.
I had a total shoulder replacement and it went very well. All pain gone, all crunching gone, range of motion back 90% at 5 months.
Am not a fan of "resolving symptoms" with injections of anything, so am looking at this Arthrosamid closely.
What I could find on this injectable substance is that if it breaks down, the components become neurotoxic and carcinogens.
Maybe that is why it isn't FDA approved in the states?
Just saying....but I do hope I am wrong and can find more research...
Reminds me of the silicon injections to get larger boobs, but at what cost?
Tku very much.
Will rethink...
