What is Hydrocortisone?
Active Ingredients: Hydrocortisone
Hydrocortisone Injection is a steroid drug used to treat inflammation caused by a variety of conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, serious skin conditions, allergies, and asthma. This drug is also used to treat joint inflammation, inflamed tendon sheaths, and inflamed bursa.
Hydrocortisone Injection may also be used with other drugs as a replacement therapy if the adrenal gland function is compromised or the patient is diagnosed with Addison's disease. This medication may be used to treat a patient in an adrenal crisis.
Hydrocortisone belongs to the family of medicines called corticosteroids. It works by preventing the release of chemicals that produce immune or allergic responses.
