Typical dosage for Kenalog

The typical starting dose ranges from 2.5 mg to 100 mg per day depending on your condition. The injection is given into a muscle (intramuscular) or directly into the affected joint (intra-articular). Your prescriber will adjust your dose based on how well you respond and if you have any side effects.

Here are some common doses for adults:

  • Hay fever or pollen asthma: The typical dose is 40 mg to 100 mg injected into the muscle once.
  • Multiple sclerosis exacerbations: The typical dose is 160 mg injected into the muscle once a day for a week, then 64 mg injected every other day for one month.
  • Gout attacks or arthritis:
    • Smaller joints: The typical dose is 2.5 mg to 5 mg injected into the joint once. Some people might need up to 10 mg for a single dose.
    • Larger joints: The typical dose is 5 mg to 15 mg injected into the joint once. Some people might need up to 40 mg for a single dose.
