Sonexa 4mg Tablet 1 Strip

✔️ How does Sonexa 4 work?

Sonexa 4 belongs to a class of medicines called corticosteroids, which mimic the natural anti-inflammatory hormones produced by your adrenal glands. When you experience severe inflammation or an allergic reaction, your immune system releases chemicals that cause swelling, heat, and pain. This medication works by entering your body's cells and blocking the release of these inflammatory chemicals. By turning down the immune system's overactive response, it stops swelling before it spreads, protects healthy tissues from damage, and relieves physical discomfort.

✔️ Directions for Use:

Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet unless your doctor specifically instructs you to do so. Taking this medication with food or a glass of milk is highly recommended to prevent stomach upset.

Always follow your doctor's exact instructions regarding your dose and schedule. Never stop taking Sonexa 4mg Tablet suddenly, especially if you have been on it for a long time, as your body needs time to adjust. Your doctor will provide a plan for gradually lowering the dose when it is time to stop.
