Product Details

Rova 10mg Tablet contains methylprednisolone acetate, a synthetic glucocorticoid with potent anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and anti-allergic properties. It works by reducing inflammation and controlling allergic reactions, providing both systemic and localized treatment. The slow release of the active ingredient allows for prolonged relief, making it highly effective for long-term use in managing corticosteroid-responsive conditions.

Purposes

Rova 10mg Tablet is primarily used for treating conditions such as hay fever, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, collagen diseases, and various skin conditions. This medication helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and allergic reactions, providing significant relief for patients with these chronic conditions.

Warnings

1. Kaposi's Sarcoma: There have been reports of patients developing Kaposi’s sarcoma during corticosteroid therapy. Discontinuation of the drug may lead to remission of symptoms.
2. Joint Infections: Patients should be monitored for septic arthritis if a marked increase in pain, swelling, and fever occurs. In such cases, appropriate antibiotics should be administered.
3. Thrombosis Risk: Tablet may increase the risk of thrombosis, particularly in individuals predisposed to thromboembolic disorders. Use with caution in these patients.
