Pradoza 40 MG Injection 1 ML contains methylprednisolone (40 mg), which exerts its effects on the body as follows:

• Glucocorticoid Receptor Binding: Methylprednisolone binds to receptors in the cytoplasm. These are called glucocorticoid receptors. By binding to these receptors, it triggers a process that reduces inflammation.

• Gene Transcription Activation: Once bound to its receptor, methylprednisolone activates genes that help fight inflammation. This means it turns on certain genes that help reduce swelling and redness.

• Repression of Pro-Inflammatory Genes: At the same time, it turns off or "represses" genes that cause inflammation. This further helps in managing inflammation.

• Mineralocorticoid Activity: Methylprednisolone has some activity similar to mineralocorticoids - hormones that help maintain sodium levels in your body. This can lead to sodium retention in the body, which can affect fluid balance.
