How It Works
Kenalog contains Triamcinolone Acetonide, a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune response. When injected into the muscle (IM) or directly into an affected joint (IA), it slows down the production of inflammatory substances, helping to relieve symptoms over several weeks.
Unlike oral steroids, Kenalog delivers medication directly to the affected area, minimizing systemic side effects while providing prolonged symptom relief.
