COMPARISON OF TWO STEROID PREPARATIONS USED TO TREAT TENNIS ELBOW, USING THE HYPOSPRAY

Abstract
Methyl prednisolone acetate and hydrocortisone acetate were compared in a trial using the Hypospray to treat tennis elbow. There was little difference between the two preparations as far as side-effects and short-term suppression of symptoms were concerned, both being successful. However, late recurrence was very common in both groups, suggesting that a reappraisal of local steroid in this condition is needed.
