Predmet 4 Tablet

Predmet 4 Tablet contains Methylprednisolone (4mg). Prescription required.

Treatment of inflammatory and allergic conditions such as asthma/allergic disorders, skin diseases (eczema, dermatitis), rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune disorders, flare-ups of inflammatory conditions.

Methylprednisolone is a corticosteroid that suppresses the immune response and reduces inflammation. It decreases the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing swelling, redness, pain and allergic symptoms.

Take the tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Usually taken with food or after meals to reduce stomach upset; take at the same time each day. Do not stop suddenly—dose is often tapered gradually. If you miss a dose, take it when remembered unless it is close to the next dose.
