Overview

Dhasolone 5mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) presented as a tablet, with Prednisolone 5mg as its active ingredient content.

This page is limited to product, safety and handling information, in line with Malaysian rules on prescription medicine information for the public. Your prescriber or pharmacist is the right source for anything beyond that, together with the leaflet inside the pack.

Through DoctorOnCall, this product is supplied after an online consultation with a licensed doctor and a valid prescription, and it is checked by a registered pharmacist before dispensing. Take it exactly as prescribed, and speak to your doctor before stopping, changing the dose, or starting any other medicine alongside it.

Directions for Use

Take Dhasolone 5mg Tablet with food or milk to reduce stomach upset, and preferably in the morning to mirror the body’s natural cortisol rhythm unless your doctor advises a different schedule. Follow your prescribed dosing and tapering schedule exactly, and do not stop the medicine abruptly without medical advice.

Dosage

The dose of Dhasolone 5mg Tablet varies widely depending on the condition being treated, ranging from a few milligrams to much higher doses for severe flare-ups, and is always individualised by your doctor. Your doctor will also decide whether the dose needs to be gradually tapered down rather than stopped suddenly, especially after longer courses.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
