Predniheal contains prednisolone, a corticosteroid medicine used to reduce inflammation and suppress the immune system. It is commonly prescribed to treat a wide range of conditions, including allergies, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory disorders, and certain types of cancer. Predniheal is known for its fast and powerful action in bringing down inflammation and is available in various forms including tablets, syrups, and injections.
Mechanism of Action
Prednisolone in Predniheal works by mimicking the action of natural corticosteroid hormones produced by the adrenal glands. It reduces inflammation by blocking the release of substances in the body that cause swelling, redness, and immune reactions. It also slows down the activity of the immune system, which helps control autoimmune diseases where the body attacks its own tissues.

-
Allergic reactions and severe skin allergies

Asthma and chronic lung diseases
