Description

Kenalog-40 is a corticosteroid medication containing triamcinolone acetonide, which is used to treat a variety of conditions involving inflammation and immune system responses. This medication works by inhibiting the release of inflammatory substances in the body, helping to reduce swelling, redness, and pain associated with conditions such as arthritis, allergic reactions, and certain skin disorders.

The 10 mL multidose vial is suitable for both single and multiple administrations. The dosage and frequency of administration depend on the patient's condition and response to treatment. Kenalog-40 is typically used for intramuscular, intra-articular, and soft tissue injections, providing long-lasting relief from symptoms of inflammation.

Patients using Kenalog-40 may experience side effects such as weight gain, fluid retention, or changes in blood sugar levels. It is essential for healthcare providers to monitor patients regularly to manage potential adverse effects and adjust the dosage accordingly.
