Tixocortol


Tixocortol is a type of corticosteroid, specifically a glucocorticoid, used in the treatment of various inflammatory and allergic conditions. It is also known as Tixocortol Pivalate and is marketed under various brand names worldwide.

Pharmacology[edit]

Tixocortol works by mimicking the effects of hormones your body naturally produces in your adrenal glands.

Uses[edit]

Tixocortol is used to treat a variety of inflammatory and allergic conditions, including:

Side Effects[edit]
