[|AI|]  Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. The injection you are taking about is mostly steroid injection. In emergency situation, injection deriphyllin and demon are given intramuscularly. Demon being a steroid is first choice in this. Because of its anti-inflammatory action, immediate relief is there in bronchitis.  Bronchitis is nothing but inflammatory edema of bronchi which causes narrowing of the lumen and thus breathing is difficult. So anti-inflammatory (steroid) are given to revert the inflammatory edema and thus open up the lumen. So most probably the injection is of steroid.
