Predlone 40mg

Description

Active Ingredient & Strength: Methylprednisolone Acetate 40mg

Mechanism of Action: As an ester of methylprednisolone, it provides a prolonged, sustained release of the corticosteroid into the body. It diffuses across cell membranes to inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines and suppress the migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, effectively reducing chronic inflammation and dampening overactive immune responses.
