How Cingal Works

Cross-Linked Sodium Hyaluronate

The stabilized hyaluronic acid:

• reduces friction;
• enhances shock absorption;
• supports smoother joint movement.

Triamcinolone Hexacetonide

The corticosteroid component:

• reduces inflammation;
• relieves joint pain;
• decreases swelling;
• provides rapid symptomatic improvement.

Together, these ingredients offer both immediate comfort and prolonged joint support.
