Warnings

Warning 1

Dosage must be decreased or discontinued gradually when the drug has been administered for more than a few days.

Warning 2

Adverse effects of glucocorticoids on the cardiovascular system, such as dyslipidemia and hypertension may predispose treated patients with existing cardiovascular risk factors to additional cardiovascular effects, if high doses and prolonged courses are used. Accordingly, corticosteroids should be employed judiciously in such patients and attention should be paid to risk modification and additional cardiac monitoring if needed.

Warning 3

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) should be used cautiously in conjunction with corticosteroids in hypoprothrombinemia.
