  • Allergic Reactions: Helps manage severe allergic responses, such as asthma or allergic dermatitis.

  • Inflammatory Conditions: Used for inflammatory conditions affecting the lungs (e.g., COPD), eyes (e.g., uveitis), skin, and gastrointestinal tract (e.g., Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis).

Side Effects:

  • Common Side Effects: These include increased appetite, weight gain, insomnia, mood changes, and fluid retention.
  • Long-Term Side Effects: Prolonged use may lead to osteoporosis, high blood pressure, increased infection risk, Cushing's syndrome, and adrenal insufficiency.

Precautions:

  • Diabetes: Prednisolone can increase blood sugar levels, so it should be used with caution in diabetic patients.
  • Infections: Since it suppresses the immune system, it may mask signs of infection or increase susceptibility to infections.
  • Gastrointestinal Health: It can increase the risk of stomach ulcers, especially when taken with NSAIDs.
  • Gradual Discontinuation: Long-term prednisolone use should not be stopped abruptly; it must be tapered off gradually to avoid adrenal insufficiency.
