How DEXAMETHASONE (TORQUE) INJECTION Works
DEXAMETHASONE
(TORQUE) INJECTION is a steroid medicine with anti-inflammatory and
immune suppressant properties. It boosts your body with sufficient
corticosteroid levels (cortisol, aldosterone) during deficient
conditions and helps your body to function properly.
It also
reduces the release of certain chemicals (prostaglandins) in the body
that causes inflammation, pain, irritation and swelling. As a result, it
reduces allergic and inflammatory conditions in the body.
How to use DEXAMETHASONE (TORQUE) INJECTION
DEXAMETHASONE

into the vein, muscle, joints or tendons depending upon the site of
