Hello
Gupione prednisolone is steroid drug used for treating severe allergy and inflammation.
The usual dosage is 1 mg/ kg body wright.
It seems from the history that you are having itching and red eyes associated with sneezing. All these indicate allergic disease.
Hence here steroids can be used.
Any body weighing more than 30 kg can take the dosage as told by doctor.
Taken 6 tablets of 5 mg will become 30 mg. Hence you can take the dosage no problem.


Thank you
