Triton 1ml Injection

Triton 1ml Injection, made by Pharma Health, is a corticosteroid. Its active ingredient is Triamcinolone, and it is used for joint inflammation, allergies, skin conditions, mouth ulcers and keloid scars. Pack size: 5 injections.

Uses of Triton 1ml Injection

Triton 1ml Injection is used in several forms to reduce inflammation. Injections into a joint or soft tissue help painful conditions such as arthritis, bursitis and tendon inflammation, and injections into the skin are used for keloid scars and some stubborn patches of eczema or hair loss. Creams and ointments treat inflammatory skin conditions, and dental paste is used for mouth ulcers. Some forms are also used for allergies.

How Triton 1ml Injection 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.

Possible side effects

Depending on the form used, Triton 1ml Injection may cause:

• Pain or a flare of soreness after a joint injection
• Thinning or lightening of the skin at the treated area
• Facial flushing
• Raised blood sugar for a few days
• Temporary changes in periods

Contact a doctor urgently if a treated joint becomes hot, red, very swollen and painful, especially with fever, as this may mean infection. Seek emergency help for swelling of the face or throat or difficulty breathing.

Precautions and warnings

• Injections are given in a clinic or hospital by trained staff, who will make sure there is no infection in the area first.
• Tell your doctor if you have diabetes, as steroid injections can raise your blood sugar for several days.
• Let your doctor know about any current infection, tuberculosis, stomach ulcers, glaucoma or high blood pressure.
• Creams and pastes should be used only for the time advised, and never as a skin-lightening product.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss the treatment with your doctor first.

Storage

Store as directed on the pack, protected from light. Injections should only be prepared and given by a doctor, nurse or other trained healthcare professional. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
