About Prednisolone 5mg Tablets
Prednisolone 5mg Tablets are a prescription-only corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation and modulates immune response. Used for allergy, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and autoimmune disorders. Important safety notes: Never stop abruptly — a taper schedule is required to avoid adrenal insufficiency. Take with food to reduce peptic ulcer risk. Long-term use carries risks of Cushing's syndrome, osteoporosis, and hyperglycaemia — monitor blood glucose in diabetics. Immunosuppression increases infection susceptibility.
