Synvisc Treatment Can Be Legally Imported from Canada.
Montreal, Quebec (AffordableDrugs) December 11, 2004 – Synvisc, the popular treatment for osteoarthritis, can be legally imported from Canada. The common belief in the United States is that Synvisc falls under the same category as prescription drugs and cannot be legally imported. However this is not true as under FDA (Food and Drug Administration) regulations Synvisc is classified differently and can be imported legally.
Synvisc is a popular treatment that can only be given by a trained specialist to help people suffering from osteoarthritis. It is injected into the knee of the patient to help relieve the pain of osteoarthritis. Many American doctors and care specialists are unaware that it is not illegal to import Synvisc from Canada. However, since April 2004, Synvisc is classified as a “Medical Device”. FDA regulations state that medical devices do not fall under the same guidelines as normal prescription medications. In the FDA guidelines under Subchapter H-Medical Devices In Part 807, Subpart D-Exemptions, Section 807.65 it states the following: i) Persons who dispense devices to the ultimate consumer or whose major responsibility is to render a service necessary to provide the consumer (i.e., patient, physician, layman, etc.) with a device or the benefits to be derived from the use of a device; for example,
a hearing aid dispenser, optician, clinical laboratory, assembler of diagnostic x-ray systems, and personnel from a hospital, clinic, dental laboratory, orthotic or prosthetic retail facility, whose primary responsibility to the ultimate consumer is to dispense or provide a service through the use of a previously manufactured device. This means that specialists that dispense the Synvisc treatment benefit from an exemption that allows the legal importation of this treatment.
As stated by the FDA regulation Synvisc is classified differently than regular medications. Synvisc can be imported legally from Canada at a greatly discounted price. It is currently available from AffordableDrugs at a price much lower than anywhere in the United States.
Synvisc is developed and manufactured by Genzyme Biosurgery and Synvisc is a registered trademark of Genzyme Corporation.
