The world's first combination of hyaluronic acid and cortisone
CINGAL® combines the benefits of corticosteroids and highly concentrated hyaluronic acid in a single injection.
Immediate & long-lasting pain relief
The CINGAL® study confirms long-lasting pain relief and suggests even longer effectiveness.
Effective cartilage protection thanks to the combination of active ingredients
The joint administration of cortisone & hyaluronic acid has a potent anti-inflammatory effect and at the same time a cartilage-friendly effect, which is not shown when cortisone is administered alone

CINGAL® in comparison
CINGAL® impresses compared to other hyaluronic acid injections
CINGAL® is the ideal solution for demanding osteoarthritis patients who suffer from acute pain and want fast, long-lasting results. With a single injection, CINGAL® combines the benefits of cortisone and cross-linked hyaluronic acid with a high active ingredient content, for demonstrably faster and more long-lasting pain relief compared to other single-injection products.
2-in-1 combination product
CINGAL® offers faster and long-lasting pain relief than other hyaluronic acid treatments thanks to the unique combination of hyaluronic acid with patented cross-linking technology and cortisone triamcinolone hexacetonide.
Works faster than cross-linked hyaluronic acid
The corticosteroid reduces inflammation in the knee joint and provides rapid pain relief, while the hyaluronic acid provides pain relief lasting up to 6 months.
