Description
Indications
Prednisolone is a corticosteroid medication that is used to manage inflammation and modulate an overactive immune system. This medication functions by mimicking the effects of cortisol, a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, which regulates metabolism and responds to stress. Corticosteroids are essential substances that are naturally produced by the body for proper functioning. Prednisolone effectively hinders the release of pro-inflammatory substances in the body, thus reducing inflammation.
Prednisolone is used to treat a range of inflammatory conditions, including arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, allergic disorders, endocrine disorders, and conditions affecting the skin, eyes, lungs, stomach, nervous system, and blood cells. Prednisolone may also be used to alleviate symptoms related to certain forms of cancer.
Uses and Dosage
Prednisolone is available in various forms, including tablet, orally disintegrating tablet, solution, and suspension. Your physician will instruct you on the appropriate dosing schedule based on your condition and response to treatment. Ensure to take prednisolone exactly as prescribed and to avoid modifying the dose without medical advice.
To take the orally disintegrating tablet, peel back the foil packaging using dry hands. The tablet should be placed on the tongue, where it will dissolve quickly, and may be swallowed with or without water. The tablet should not be chewed, split, or broken.
Your physician may adjust your dose of prednisolone during treatment to ensure optimal results. This may be necessary in the event of significant changes in your health, such as surgery, illness, infection, or severe asthma attack. Inform your doctor of any improvements, worsening of symptoms, or changes in health during treatment.
Prednisolone is a means of managing an ongoing condition, but it cannot cure it. Continue taking prednisolone, even if you feel well, and to avoid abruptly discontinuing the medication without medical advice. Abrupt cessation of prednisolone may result in insufficient production of naturally occurring steroids, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, slowed movements, upset stomach, weight loss, changes in skin color, sores in the mouth, and a craving for salt.
