STANCORT 40MG INJECTION 1ML contains triamcinolone (40 mg), which works on your body as follows:

• Binds to Specific Receptors: Triamcinolone binds to and activates certain receptors inside your cells, leading to changes in the behaviour of various inflammatory genes.
• Suppresses Inflammatory Pathways: It inhibits multiple inflammatory pathways and reduces the production of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
• Reduces Immune Response: The medicine decreases the proliferation of T-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, and antibody production, thus suppressing the immune response.
• Decreases Capillary Permeability: By reducing capillary permeability, it inhibits the migration of white blood cells to areas of inflammation. This action further decreases inflammation and provides relief from associated symptoms.

• Keep STANCORT 40MG INJECTION 1ML in a cool place, below 30°C.
• Avoid exposure to direct light and excessive heat.
• Do not freeze the injection.
• Always remember to keep it out of sight and reach of children.

• If you're managing rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis with STANCORT 40MG INJECTION 1ML, consider incorporating low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling into your routine; this can help maintain joint flexibility without causing further damage.
• For those using the injection to manage respiratory diseases like asthma, avoiding allergenic foods, such as dairy, gluten, and processed foods, may help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
