Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory action; inhibits release of inflammatory mediators (e.g., histamine, leukotrienes), reduces eosinophil migration, and stabilizes mast cells. Suppresses cytokine production and adhesion molecule expression.
Prednisolone is a corticosteroid that binds to the glucocorticoid receptor, leading to modulation of gene expression and suppression of inflammatory cytokines, immune responses, and adrenal function.
50 mcg per nostril twice daily (total daily dose 200 mcg), via nasal spray.
5-60 mg orally once daily or divided as 5-15 mg every 4-12 hours; adjust based on response and condition.
