I was looking at the LCD regarding steroids allowed for ESI's. Dexamethasone can be used with no issue. However, the use of methylprednisolone was eliminated (see below) unless I'm reading this incorrectly.
When it comes to Triamcinolone I am a little confused. Kenalog is not approved for Epidural use, which I presume is due to preservatives? So it appears you can use preservative free Triamcinolone? Is this correct?
