Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health concern
Disprospan contains betamethasone as active ingredient.Betamethasone is a steroid medication and is not indicated for use in managing pain.
Management of pain include use of pain medications like NSAIDs, tramadol and potent narcotic pain killers like oxycodone,hydrocodone etc.
