Medrol 16 mg is a potent corticosteroid medication containing Methylprednisolone as its active ingredient. It is highly effective in treating a wide range of inflammatory and allergic conditions. Medrol works by mimicking the effects of natural corticosteroid hormones produced by the adrenal glands, powerfully reducing inflammation and suppressing the body's immune response.
 
This medication is prescribed by healthcare professionals for various conditions, including severe allergic reactions, arthritis, skin disorders (like eczema and psoriasis), lupus, breathing disorders (like asthma), and certain autoimmune diseases. By controlling inflammation, Medrol helps to alleviate symptoms such as swelling, pain, redness, and itching associated with these conditions.
