It is effective in managing severe allergic reactions, asthma, rheumatic disorders, skin and eye conditions, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Predmet works by inhibiting the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation, thereby providing relief from swelling, pain, and other symptoms associated with these conditions.
It is important to take Predmet 16 Tablet as prescribed by your doctor, and it should be taken with food to minimize the risk of stomach upset. The dose and duration of treatment will depend on the condition being treated and your individual response to the medication. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and do not stop the medication abruptly, as this could worsen your condition.

How It Works:
Predmet 16 Tablet contains methylprednisolone, a type of corticosteroid that works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body, such as prostaglandins, that contribute to inflammation and allergic reactions. By reducing the body’s inflammatory response, it helps to control symptoms of conditions like arthritis, lupus, and psoriasis, and prevents further tissue damage caused by these diseases.
