How Often Do You Have an Inzitan Injection

0 votes
my doctor says you should not have more than 6 injections per month but I am in agony for the rest of the month.  I have severe osteo porosis.  I have the Inzitan injections every other day for 12 days.  I also take Lyrica tablets and Omeprazol  tablets.  Dolpar and Condrosan pain relief tablets.  please can you help as I am in such pain without the Inzitan.

the reason for the limited number of injection for inzitan is that is contains dexamethasone. this steroid has may produce undesirable biological activity thus a limit must be set. 6 injections per month is actually a high overall dosage  and must not be exceeded. usual dose range from once every 3-5 days (depending on the dose) to once every two weeks.
