How Contigen 1mg / 1mg / 10mg Cream works

Triamcinolone is a synthetic corticosteroid similar to the body’s own cortisol. It switches off many of the chemical signals that cause inflammation, so swelling, pain, redness and itching settle. Injected forms release the medicine slowly, so the effect can last for weeks.
