I was just prescribed medrol dose pack 4 mg to take for pain i am having due to what the doctor believes to be some kind of cervical radiculopathy C6-7. how long will it take before I actually start feeling pain relief? I just started the pack today.
Yes it can be taken for cervical radiculopathy also. It helps to reduce inflammation and then the pain generated with inflammation. The dosage has to be as per your doctor advise because he has given you this after doing assessment of your existing problem. 2dose should not be taken together. It may take 30-60minuts to start giving you pain relief. In addition, you can also use hot and cold pack on your painful area at cervical spine to have some more relief. Take care
