• Give once-daily doses in the morning to mirror body's normal cortisol secretion.
• Inspect injectable form for particulates and discoloration before administering.
• For intramuscular injection, shake suspension well before withdrawing. Keep in mind that intramuscular injections are contraindicated in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.
• For intraarticular injection, attach a 20G to 24G needle to empty syringe, using aseptic technique, so prescriber can remove a few drops of synovial fluid to confirm that needle is in the joint. The aspirating syringe is then exchanged with a prenisolone-filled syringe to inject drug into joint.
• Because prednisolone can produce many adverse reactions, assess patient regularly for evidence of such reactions, including heart failure and hypertension. Also monitor patient's intake, output, and daily weight.
• Monitor growth pattern in children; prednisolone may retard bone growth.
• Prolonged use may cause hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal suppression.
WARNING Withdraw drug gradually, as ordered, if therapy lasts longer than 2 weeks. Stopping abruptly may cause acute adrenal insufficiency or, possibly, death.
• Be aware that patient may be at risk for emotional instability or psychic disturbance while taking prednisolone, especially if predisposed to them or taking high doses.
