Triamcinolone

This page contains recent news articles, when available, and an overview of Triamcinolone but does not offer medical advice. You should contact your physician with regard to any health issues or concerns.


Overview:

Triamcinolone
(when available)

Pharmacology and use:
Triamcinolone and its derivatives are synthetic glucocorticoids that are used for their antiinflammatory or immunosuppressive properties. For the treatment of perennial and seasonal allergic rhinitis

Mechanism Of Action:
The antiinflammatory actions of corticosteroids are thought to involve lipocortins, phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins which, through inhibition of arachidonic acid, control the biosynthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes. The immune system is suppressed by corticosteroids due to a decrease in the function of the lymphatic system, a reduction in immunoglobulin and complement concentrations, the precipitation of lymphocytopenia, and interference with antigen-antibody binding.
