Description
Methylprednisolone acetate injection is a corticosteroid used for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It is indicated for the treatment of conditions such as arthritis, allergic reactions, endocrine disorders, dermatologic diseases, and respiratory conditions. The injectable formulation allows for precise dosing and is used when oral administration is not suitable.
This injection is administered intramuscularly or intra-articularly, depending on the condition being treated. It provides extended relief due to its depot formulation, which allows for a slow, sustained release of methylprednisolone into the bloodstream. The single-dose vial ensures sterility and minimizes contamination risk.
Adverse effects may include fluid retention, hypertension, hyperglycemia, mood changes, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Long-term use may lead to complications such as osteoporosis, adrenal suppression, and increased susceptibility to infections. Patients with systemic fungal infections or hypersensitivity to corticosteroids should not receive this medication.
