Important Safety Information |
Flo-Pred® is contraindicated in patients with systemic fungal
infections. Administration of live or live, attenuated vaccines is
contraindicated in patients receiving immunosuppressive doses of
corticosteroids. Killed or inactivated vaccines may be administered, however,
the response to such vaccines cannot be predicted. Immunization procedures may
be undertaken in patients who are receiving corticosteroids as replacement
therapy, e.g., for Addison’s disease. Flo-Pred® may cause mood
swings. Adverse effects of Flo-Pred® include the following: endocrine
(including development of Cushingoid state, increased requirements for insulin
or oral hypoglycemic agents in diabetic patients, manifestations of latent
diabetes mellitus); fluid and electrolyte disturbances (including fluid
retention, hypertension); gastrointestinal (including peptic ulcer with possible
perforation and hemorrhage); increased appetite; and weight gain. Dosage of
Flo-Pred® should be individualized according to the severity of the
disease and the response of the patient. For pediatric patients, the recommended
dosage should be governed by the same considerations rather than strict
adherence to the ratio indicated by age or body weight. Flo-Pred®
contains 15 mg of prednisolone (as 16.7 mg of prednisolone acetate) in each
5 mL. Butylparaben, 0.04% is added as a preservative. It also contains carbomer 934P, disodium edetate, glycerin, masking agent, poloxamer 188, propylene glycol, purified water, sodium hydroxide, sorbitol crystalline, sucralose liquid concentrate and cherry flavor. Reference: 1. Data on file |
