Dexamethasone Injection

Active Ingredients: Dexamethasone

Dexamethasone Injection is a corticosteroid drug used to treat inflammatory conditions in many types of animals, including cows, camels, cats, dogs, goats, horses, and sheep. It is indicated for ketosis, and it's used to treat symptoms related to various rheumatic, allergic, and dermatologic diseases.

Dexamethasone belongs to a class of drugs known as corticosteroids. The active ingredient, Dexamethasone, works to decrease the immune system's response, which reduces symptoms like itching, swelling, redness, and allergic reactions.
