A cortisone shot typically remains in the body for several days to a few weeks, depending on various factors such as the dosage, the individual's metabolism, and the specific condition being treated. While the corticosteroid may remain in the bloodstream for a limited time, its anti-inflammatory effects can last longer, often providing relief for weeks to months. The exact duration can vary from person to person.
