What is Depo-Medrol?

Depo-Medrol is a brand-name prescription corticosteroid injection used when oral administration of its active ingredient methylprednisolone acetate is not suitable to the condition. These include directly injecting Depo-Medrol to the affected area, such as rheumatoid arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, skin conditions, or tendon problems, or when a high dose is required such as active episodes of multiple sclerosis, intestinal conditions which cause swelling, severe allergic reactions, severe drug reactions, adrenal gland problems, and respiratory illnesses. Depo-Medrol is also used to relieve symptoms in patients with leukemia or lymphoma.

The active ingredient in Depo-Medrol is methylprednisolone acetate, a corticosteroid, which decreases swelling by reducing the immune response to injury, allergens, or infection. Because Depo-Medrol suppresses the immune response, secondary infections are a risk.

Depo-Medrol is usually injected by a healthcare professional in a clinic or hospital. Localized injections for skin, joint, or tendon disorders will always be performed by a doctor. Other conditions are treated with an intramuscular injection. The dosage and schedule will depend on the condition and the severity of the condition.

What are the side effects of Depo-Medrol?

Most people will experience side effects when taking Depo-Medrol. Depo-Medrol suppresses the immune system, so the most serious side effects of Depo-Medrol are secondary infections.

The most common side effect will be site reactions to the injection such as redness and pain. Common side effects of Depo-Medrol also include but are not limited to nausea, vomiting, heartburn, headache, sweating, acne, fluid retention, muscle weakness, thinning skin, hair growth, and a rise in blood sugar.

Mental and mood changes can range from mild to serious mood changes. Allergic reactions include hives, facial swelling, and difficulty breathing, although facial swelling is also a common non-allergic side effect of taking steroids.

This is not a complete list of side effects that may occur. Consult with your physician about any concerns you may have with side effects.
