KENALOG-40 40 mg/mL (Triamcinolone Acetonide INJECTION, SUSPENSION) 40 mg/mL

Triamcinolone acetonide works by binding to intracellular glucocorticoid receptors, which then modulate gene transcription. This action leads to anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects by inhibiting the production of inflammatory cytokines and reducing the activity of immune cells.

The dose of Kenalog-40 is determined by a healthcare professional based on the patient's condition, age, and response to treatment. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions provided by your doctor.

Kenalog-40 is classified as a pregnancy category C drug, meaning it should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefits outweigh the risks. It is not known whether Triamcinolone Acetonide passes into breast milk, so caution is advised for breastfeeding mothers. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
