Zydexa 4 MG Injection 20 ML contains dexamethasone (4 mg), which acts on the body through these mechanisms:

• Binding with Glucocorticoid Receptors: Dexamethasone binds with intracellular glucocorticoid receptors in your body cells. This process is essential as it plays a significant role in controlling inflammation.

• Regulating Gene Transcription: The formed complex after binding moves into the nucleus of the cell where it helps regulate the transcription of various genes involved in the inflammatory response.

• Reducing Inflammatory Mediators: Dexamethasone successfully reduces the production of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and cytokines. The reduction of these mediators results in decreased inflammation, swelling, and pain.

• Store Zydexa 4 MG Injection 20 ML at room temperature.

• Keep this medicine away from direct light and moisture.

• Ensure it's securely out of the reach of children.

• If you're managing arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis with Zydexa 4 MG Injection 20 ML, consider following a low-fat, high-fibre diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to help reduce inflammation.
