Cort S 100mg Injection

Cort S 100mg Injection

Cort S 100mg Injection is a hydrocortisone sodium succinate injection from Neon Laboratories, India. Each vial holds 100 mg of hydrocortisone as a sterile powder, and the pack also includes a 5 ml ampoule of sterile water for injection to prepare the solution just before use.

Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid, a man-made form of the stress hormone that the body’s adrenal glands produce naturally. It calms excess inflammation and dampens an overactive immune response, so doctors rely on it when a quick, strong effect is needed, such as in severe allergic reactions, acute asthma attacks, flare-ups of inflammatory disease and adrenal insufficiency.

Because the sodium succinate form dissolves easily in water, the injection acts fast and can be given into a vein or into a muscle, depending on the situation. This makes it a common choice in clinics and hospitals for emergencies and for people who cannot take tablets by mouth.

The medicine is meant for use under medical supervision only. The doctor will choose the dose and the length of treatment, and will watch for side effects such as raised blood sugar, higher blood pressure, fluid retention and mood changes. Tell your doctor about diabetes, infections, stomach ulcers, heart disease or any other medicine you take before the injection is given. Do not stop a long course of steroids suddenly unless your doctor advises it.
