Kenalog is a corticosteroid class medication that is used to treat various conditions, such as skin issues, allergic reactions, and inflammation, among others.

What types of side effects did you experience?

Typically, it is known to cause nausea, headache, insomnia, mood changes, vertigo, and skin irritation when used topically, according to FDA reports.

How long ago was it administered?
