[|Human|] i have spondylosis and lower back pain ( among other things) the orthopedic dr had me take a pain killer and vit b complex for two weeks, and it really helped. today ( three months later) he gave me a shot of diprospan. should i be taking a vit b complex vitamin also. does my reg multivitamin give me enough of it? or will this shot cure my leg pain and i dont need to bother?
[|AI|]  Diprospan injection is a combination of dexamethasone sodium phosphate and dexamethasone propionate. Like all the brands of dexamethasone injectables, it is a corticosteroid anti-inflammatory. It works by reducing the inflammation and swelling that is putting pressure on nerves and causing pain. It can be used for numerous indications including joint injections, gouty arthritis, inflammatory skin lesions and many other problems that are responsive to corticosteroids. Actually it is good if you take vitamin B along with this. It will help for the nerves as well your body state to be in an active mode. As well if you are taking any other multi vitamin and multi mineral is also fine. Once you must check with physiotherapist for some more exercises to strengthen your spine and improve your muscle stamina. Because treating just a pain will not be useful you have to treat the cause of pain. So here physiotherapist can hive you some treatment as well exercise for strengthening, stretching and twisting which will improve your condition over all. Hit the thanks if it's useful. Take care.
