Joint injections (kenalog vs depo-medrol

Published

Hello,

I work in an ortho clinic. I was asked to research about kenalog and depo-medrol to be used for joint injections (knee, hip, shoulders and hands).

Which one is better? Which one lasts longer? Which one works faster? Which one has great benefits?

Please advice and thank you in advance!

Hello? Anyone have any observations or comments about this...since 2012?

IS there anybody on this website besides me and the robot?

LOL! I was at the ortho yesterday and had a hand injection. Into the joint at the bottom of the thumb really. I didn't think to ask them which med and why. Sorry. If I had only seen this before I went.

I get kenolog in my right knee, Not sure if it's the best one but it's what my ortho uses.

Hppy
