For intra-articular use and direct injection into tendons.

Two ml (20 mg) of Hylartil Vet is given intra-articularly in small and medium size joints and can also be injected directly into tendons. In the treatment of larger joints/tendons the dosage may be increased to 4 ml (40 mg). The injection should be given under strict aseptic conditions. The treatment may be repeated at weekly intervals for a total of three treatments. Not more than two joints/tendons should be treated at the same time.

When performing intra-articular injections care should be taken not to scratch the cartilage surface, as this may result in diffuse swelling lasting for 24 to 48 hours. The transient swelling will have no effect on the ultimate clinical result. For best results the horse should be given a two day stall rest before gradually resuming normal activity.

The syringe must only be used once.
