Description

Depo-Medrol SDV 40mg/mL 1mL is a sterile aqueous suspension of methylprednisolone acetate, a potent anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid. It is designed for injection into specific sites including intramuscular, intra-articular, soft tissue, or intralesional areas. This formulation is not intended for intravenous administration.

Methylprednisolone acetate works by inhibiting the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation. It exerts its therapeutic effects through the suppression of immune system activity and reduction of inflammation. Depo-Medrol is commonly used to manage conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis, and allergic reactions involving the skin, eyes, or respiratory system.

The product provides prolonged action due to its depot formulation, which slowly releases the active ingredient over time, ensuring sustained anti-inflammatory effects. It is typically administered by healthcare professionals in clinical settings, with doses tailored to the severity of the condition being treated.
