About Kenamore 40 Injection
Kenamore 40 Injection belongs to a group of medications called corticosteroids. It is primarily used to treat the pain of osteoarthritis (OA) in the knee and helps to reduce the joint pain, stiffness, and swelling associated with inflammatory disorders. Osteoarthritis is a common type of arthritis in which the cartilage that cushions the bone's ends erodes due to wear and tear over time. Common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. The risk of osteoarthritis increases with increasing age.
Kenamore 40 Injection contains ‘triamcinolone acetonide’, which belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies. This effect helps reduce swelling, pain, and discomfort.
A healthcare professional will administer Kenamore 40 Injection. Do not self-administer. Sometimes Kenamore 40 Injection may cause certain side effects such as sore throat, runny nose, sinusitis, dizziness, nervousness, cough, contusions (bleeding under the skin) and injection site reactions. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
