Study Shows Erthropoietin More Effective than Methylprednisolone in SCI Cases
Methylprednisolone is typically given to spinal cord injury -SCI- patients within 8 hours of the injury to help contain the damage. One study showed that erthropoietin is more effective for spinal cord injury damage than methylprenisolone.
