Description:
Medrol 4mg Tablet is a corticosteroid medicine used to treat a wide range of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, such as severe allergies, asthma, rheumatic disorders, skin and eye conditions, and systemic lupus erythematosus. It works by suppressing the immune system and blocking the release of substances that cause inflammation, thereby providing relief from swelling, pain, and discomfort.
The tablet should be taken with food to reduce the risk of stomach upset. Your doctor will decide the appropriate dose and duration based on your medical condition. It is important to take the medication exactly as prescribed and not to stop it abruptly, as doing so can worsen your symptoms.
Common side effects include skin thinning, increased susceptibility to infections, reduced bone density, and mood changes. Because it may weaken your immune system, you should avoid contact with people who have contagious illnesses like measles, chickenpox, or flu. Before using this medicine, inform your doctor if you have conditions like osteoporosis, high blood pressure, mood disorders, liver disease, or diabetes, as Medrol can raise blood sugar levels and worsen certain conditions. Additionally, let your doctor know about any other medications you are taking to avoid interactions. Medrol should be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding only if advised by your doctor, and regular monitoring of blood pressure, blood sugar, and bone health may be necessary during long-term treatment.
