What is Cortrophin Gel?
Cortrophin Gel, also known as repository corticotropin injection, is a pharmaceutical preparation used primarily for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It mimics the activity of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), stimulating the adrenal cortex to produce endogenous corticosteroids, thereby aiding in the management of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Its unique gel formulation allows for extended release and prolonged action, making it suitable for conditions requiring sustained corticosteroid effects.Side Effects
