Predmet 4 mg Tablet

Predmet 4 mg Tablet contains methylprednisolone 4 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the corticosteroid class and is used to help reduce inflammation and swelling in conditions such as asthma flare-ups when a doctor prescribes it. Predmet 4 mg Tablet works by calming an overactive immune response so breathing symptoms and other inflammatory symptoms can improve.

How it works: Methylprednisolone in Predmet 4 mg Tablet blocks the release of substances that cause inflammation, swelling, and irritation. By reducing this inflammation, the tablet can help open the airways and ease symptoms linked to asthma and other steroid-treated conditions.

Predmet 4 mg Tablet is the lowest strength in this brand range, with no lower-strength sibling products and higher strengths available as Predmet 16 mg Tablet and Predmet 24 mg Tablet.
