WHAT DHASOLONE IS USED FOR
Dhasolone
is
used
to
reduce
inflammation.
HOW DHASOLONE WORKS
Prednisolone,
the
active
ingredient
in
Dhasolone,
belongs to a group of medicines
called steroids. Their full name
is
corticosteroids.
These
corticosteroids
occur
naturally
in
the
body,
and
help
to
maintain health and well-being.
Boosting your body with extra
corticosteroid
(such
as
Dhasolone) is an effective way
to
treat
various
illnesses
involving
inflammation
in
the
body.
BEFORE YOU USE DHASOLONE
_-When you must not take it _
Do not take Dhasolone if:
• allergic
(hypersensitive)
to
prednisolone
• suffering
from
a
serious
infection
which
is
not
being
treated
• suffering
from
a
herpes
infection or an eye ulceration
• pregnant or breast feeding
_ _
_-Before you start to take it _
Check
with
your
doctor
first
before taking Dhasolone:
• If you have ever had severe
depression or manic-depression
(bipolar disorder). This includes
having
had
depression
before
while taking steroid medicines
like Dhasolone.
• If any of your close family
has had these illnesses.
• If you have Systemic sclerosis
(an
autoimmune
disorder).
Taking daily doses of 15 mg or
more may increase the risk of a
serious
complication
called
scleroderma renal crisis which
may cause your blood pressure
to increase and reduce urination.
_-Taking other medicines _
Please
tell
your
doctor
or
pharmacist if you are taking or
have
recently
taken
any
other
medicines,
including
those
obtained without a prescription
and herbal medicines.
Dhasolone
may
increase
or
decrease
the
effect
of
some
drugs. These include:
•
Barbiturates, a class of drugs
used to relax and help people
sleep
