default
Posted on Sat, 8 Aug 2015
Question: I have had a tightness on my throat since yesterday and today i went to a doctor here in XXXXXXX the doctor looked inside my throat And said it was abit swallon, so they prescribed me predisolone 20mg every 8 hours for 3 days, they said could of be from viral infection or inflamation due to siphoning fuel and it entering my mouth which i spat out. The day i siphoned fuel (am a Mechanic) i was ok the whole day and the next day too, only last night i had a tighness on throat while i was in an aircondition room relaxing, my question is can i take predisolone wihile i am taking xanax 0,25mg and valdoxan 25mg. Just wanted to know as some doctors here where i am are not that great and would like to know a second opinon. Thank you

Brief Answer:
Yes, you can!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this tightness in the throat that you have mentioned. If you siphoned rules into your mouth, this is most likely a chemical inflammatory response and not an infection. It is safe to take prednisone alongside these medications. There are no documented drug interactions as a result of taking them together.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
