About this item
INTRODUCTION ABOUT OMNACORTIL 10MG TABLET
OMNACORTIL 10MG TABLET is used in the management of inflammatory and auto-immune conditions such as allergies (including severe allergic reactions), inflammation (affecting the lungs, including asthma, blood vessels, heart, bowel, and kidneys), muscles and joints, including rheumatoid arthritis, and the eye and nervous system), skin conditions, infections, and cancers (such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma).
OMNACORTIL 10MG TABLET is also used to manage organ rejection after transplantation and, in some cases, to boost steroid levels when the body is unable to produce natural steroids on its own. It is also used to manage high calcium levels in the affected individuals, which are generally characterized by symptoms such as stomach pain, nausea, bone pain, and muscle weakness. It contains Prednisolone, which belongs to a group of medicines called Corticosteroids, which help manage pain and inflammatory conditions.
