Wysolone 5 mg Tablet

Wysolone 5 mg Tablet contains 5 mg of prednisolone in each tablet. Prednisolone is a corticosteroid medicine used to reduce inflammation and calm an overactive immune response. Wysolone 5 mg Tablet may be prescribed for conditions such as asthma flare-ups and other inflammatory or allergic problems when a steroid is needed. This pack contains 10 tablets in a strip/box.

How it works: Prednisolone works by blocking substances in the body that cause swelling, redness, and irritation. As a tablet, Wysolone 5 mg Tablet is taken by mouth so the medicine can be absorbed and start helping control inflammation from inside the body.

Wysolone 5 mg Tablet is the lower-strength tablet in the Wysolone line, which can help a doctor fine-tune dosing more precisely than Wysolone 10 mg Tablet or Wysolone 20 mg Tablet. It may be chosen for people who need a smaller dose, a gradual taper, or a more exact adjustment based on symptoms and response. Because it is 5 mg per tablet, it is not the same as the higher-strength tablets and should be used only as directed by a clinician.

• Asthma flare-up treatment

Each Wysolone 5 mg Tablet provides 5 mg of prednisolone, so your prescribed dose may involve one tablet or several tablets at a time depending on the condition being treated. The number of doses per day can vary, and the maximum daily dose depends on the doctor’s plan, your response, and how serious the inflammation is. Never adjust the dose on your own, because prednisolone dosing must be individualized and lower strengths like Wysolone 5 mg Tablet are often used for careful dose changes.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
