There is no cure for osteoarthritis. Synvisc is a treatment for the pain of osteoarthritis. In some patients, successful treatment may reduce pain within the first week after treatment begins. In most patients, the most pain relief and the greatest amount of treatment success occurred 8 to 12 weeks after Synvisc treatment began.
