CompositionPCORT 10 MG Tablet 10 is a medicine used to treat a wide range of conditions linked to inflammation and an overactive immune system. These include severe allergies, several types of arthritis, severe asthma, lupus, inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, and certain cancers and transplant care.
It contains prednisone and belongs to a group of medicines called corticosteroids. It works by reducing inflammation and calming the immune response. The dose is tailored to your condition; take it as directed, usually with food, and do not stop it suddenly, as the dose often needs to be reduced gradually under your doctor's guidance.
Because corticosteroids can affect bones, blood sugar, and the stomach, supportive measures may help. These include a diet with enough calcium and vitamin D, limiting added salt, and monitoring blood sugar if advised.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any infection, diabetes, high blood pressure, stomach ulcers, or bone thinning, and any other medicines you take. Tell your doctor about signs of infection, mood changes, or stomach pain, as this medicine can lower your resistance to infection.
