Methylprednisolone 8mg Tablet
Methylprednisolone exerts potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects through multiple mechanisms:
Anti-inflammatory Action
Inhibits phospholipase A2, reducing production of prostaglandins, leukotrienes, and other inflammatory mediators that cause swelling, pain, and redness.
Immunosuppressive Effect
Suppresses lymphocyte proliferation, reduces antibody production, and inhibits cytokine release (IL-1, IL-2, TNF-α), dampening immune responses.
Cell Membrane Stabilization
Stabilizes lysosomal membranes and inhibits release of destructive enzymes from neutrophils and macrophages at inflammation sites.
Gene Expression Modulation
Binds to glucocorticoid receptors, enters cell nuclei, and modifies gene transcription to produce anti-inflammatory proteins while suppressing pro-inflammatory ones.
