View company portfolio →What Predlone 40mg/ml (Methylprednisolone) is used for
Methylprednisolone is a corticosteroid (a steroid medicine). It is a man-made version of a hormone your body makes naturally. It calms swelling and redness (inflammation) and turns down the immune system. It comes as tablets and as injections. It is a prescription medicine, and the injections are given by a doctor or nurse, often in hospital or clinic. It is not the same as the body-building steroids.

- Joint, muscle, blood vessel and skin conditions caused by an overactive immune system
