Your doctor will determine if treatment needs to be reduced gradually and will advise the safest way to discontinue therapy when appropriate.
Q. What should I do if I develop signs of an infection while receiving Acticort 10mg Tablet?
Prednisolone can reduce immune system activity, which may make infections harder to recognize or manage. If you develop symptoms such as fever, persistent sore throat, worsening infection, or any unusual illness while receiving Acticort 10mg Tablet, inform your doctor promptly.
