Predilab-10 Tablet contains prednisolone (10mg), which has several mechanisms of action on the body:

• Inhibits Inflammatory Mediators: Prednisolone helps in reducing inflammation by inhibiting the production of inflammatory substances like prostaglandins and leukotrienes.

• Suppresses Immune Cell Migration: It suppresses the migration of immune cells to sites of inflammation, thereby reducing swelling and pain.

• Interferes with WBC Functions: Prednisolone also interferes with the function of white blood cells (WBCs), leading to a suppression of the immune system's responses.

• Modulates Cytokine Expression: Finally, prednisolone modulates the expression of cytokines, which are involved in immune and inflammatory responses. This helps in controlling symptoms and modifying the course of many disorders that respond to steroids.
