How does Kenalog 10 Injection Work?

Kenalog 10 works by delivering Triamcinolone Acetonide, a potent corticosteroid, directly into the body where inflammation is present. This active ingredient inhibits the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation.

It provides relief from symptoms like swelling, redness, and itching. By reducing these inflammatory responses, Kenalog 10 helps to manage pain and discomfort in pets suffering from various chronic conditions.
