Depomed Injection 80 mg/2 ml contains Methylprednisolone Acetate 80 mg in a sterile suspension for injection. It is a long-acting corticosteroid preparation designed to provide potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. This depot formulation allows sustained release of the active ingredient, ensuring prolonged therapeutic action after administration.

Methylprednisolone acetate is a synthetic glucocorticoid that works by suppressing inflammation and modifying the body’s immune response. It inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and cytokines, reduces capillary permeability, and decreases migration of white blood cells to sites of inflammation. As a result, it effectively relieves swelling, redness, pain, and allergic reactions associated with various medical conditions.

Depomed Injection is commonly administered via intramuscular, intra-articular, intralesional, or soft tissue injection, depending on the condition being treated and the physician’s recommendation.
