✔️ Pharmacology

Prednisolone is predominantly an adrenocortical glucocorticoid. The Phospholipase A2 enzyme, which produces a variety of inflammatory mediators including leukotrienes, SRS-A, prostaglandins, and others, is directly inhibited by prednisolone. Prednisolone is quickly and completely absorbed from the GI system after oral therapy. Prednisolone is eliminated from the body with a half-life of 2 to 4 hours and is 70–90% protein-bound in plasma. Urine is used to removing it after being mostly digested in the liver.
