The chemical name for methylprednisolone is pregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione, 11,17,21-trihydroxy-6- methyl-, (6α,11β)-, and the molecular weight is 374.48. The structural formula is represented below: Each MethylPREDNISolone Tablet for oral administration contains 4 mg methylprednisolone. Inactive ingredients: magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose and sodium starch glycolate. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Naturally occurring glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone and cortisone), which also have salt-retaining properties, are used as replacement therapy in adrenocortical deficiency states. Their synthetic analogs are primarily used for their potent anti-inflammatory effects in disorders of many organ systems. Glucocorticoids cause profound and varied metabolic effects. In addition, they modify the body's immune responses to diverse stimuli. INDICATIONS AND USAGE MethylPREDNISolone Tablets are indicated in the following conditions: 1.
