Used for inflammatory disorders, allergic reactions, and autoimmune conditions that require sustained corticosteroid coverage. Common applications include joint inflammation, soft tissue swelling, and conditions where prolonged drug action is beneficial.

As a corticosteroid, it works by binding to glucocorticoid receptors and modulating gene expression to reduce inflammation, suppress immune responses, and decrease the activity of multiple inflammatory mediators in the body.

Long-acting formulation designed for depot/injection use only. Should be administered by healthcare professionals. Requires careful monitoring for corticosteroid-related side effects including blood glucose changes, fluid retention, mood alterations, and adrenal suppression with prolonged use.
