Unable to say: because this drug is not available in the US, and I cannot find any online information on it. The only things that come close is a combination of dexamethasaone and methcarbamol, which is a muscle relaxant that CAN cause physical dependency. Steroids are not good drugs for most causes of arthritis, because the inflammation rebounds when you stop. Talk to a rheumatologist familiar with the agent.
