Can you give me information on Methylprednisolone Acetate (MPA). We read information on tests done on horses on www.ingentaconnect.com. What is your take on this drug?

Welcome Frank,
We compare and contrast the effects of the different types of steroids including MPA in the article associated with this discussion. Note that MPA is sold under the brand name DepoMedrol or sometimes simply referred to as Depo and some references in the article may use these terms.

If after reading the article you still have questions post them here.
