Cinocort 40mg Injection

Prescription Required

Product introduction

Cinocort 40mg Injection is a steroid. It is used for the treatment of a wide variety of medical conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatic disorders. It provides relief by preventing the release of substances that cause inflammation and by suppressing the immune system.

Cinocort 40mg Injection is generally administered by a doctor or a nurse. You should not self-administer this medicine at home. Get the injection regularly at the same time each day to get maximum benefits from it. It is important to keep using the medicine regularly until your doctor tells you it is safe to stop.

This medicine may make you more susceptible to viral infections, so you should stay away from people who have these infections.
