What is Prednoderm?

Prednoderm is a topical medication that is commonly used in veterinary medicine to treat skin conditions in animals. It contains the active ingredient prednisolone, which is a corticosteroid that helps to reduce inflammation, itching, and redness associated with various skin issues such as allergies, eczema, dermatitis, and other skin irritations. Animals may need Prednoderm if they are suffering from skin conditions that cause discomfort, itching, or inflammation. These conditions can be caused by allergies, infections, parasites, or other underlying health issues. Prednoderm can help to alleviate the symptoms and provide relief to the animal by reducing inflammation and itching, allowing the skin to heal. It is important to use Prednoderm as directed by a veterinarian, as prolonged or improper use of corticosteroids can have side effects. It is always recommended to consult with a veterinarian before using any medication on your pet.

What problems could my pet have with Prednoderm?

While Prednoderm can be an effective treatment for various skin conditions in animals, there are potential problems that may arise with its use. Some of the issues to be aware of include: 1. **Side Effects**: Like any medication, Prednoderm can have side effects, especially if not used as directed. Common side effects may include increased thirst and urination, weight gain, changes in appetite, and behavioral changes. More serious side effects such as gastrointestinal ulcers, skin thinning, or immune suppression can occur with prolonged or improper use. 2. **Allergic Reactions**: Some animals may be allergic to Prednoderm or its ingredients, leading to skin irritation, redness, or swelling at the application site. If you notice any signs of an allergic reaction, such as hives or difficulty breathing, discontinue use and contact your veterinarian immediately. 3. **Underlying Conditions**: Prednoderm may mask symptoms of underlying health issues that are causing the skin condition. It is important to address the root cause of the skin problem to prevent recurrence or worsening of the condition. 4. **Resistance**: Prolonged use of corticosteroids like prednisolone can lead to the development of resistance, where the medication becomes less effective over time. This can make future treatment of skin conditions more challenging. 5. **Improper Use**: Using Prednoderm inappropriately, such as applying too much or too frequently, can increase the risk of side effects and may not provide the desired benefits. Always follow your veterinarian's instructions for dosage and application. To minimize the risk of problems with Prednoderm, it is crucial to consult with your veterinarian before starting any treatment and to closely follow their recommendations for use. Regular monitoring and communication with your vet can help ensure the safe and effective use of this medication for your pet's skin condition.

Is there anything I need to know about administering Prednoderm?

Administering Prednoderm properly is essential to ensure its effectiveness and minimize the risk of side effects. Here are some important points to keep in mind when administering Prednoderm to your pet: 1. **Dosage**: Follow your veterinarian's instructions regarding the dosage of Prednoderm. The dosage will depend on your pet's size, the severity of the skin condition, and other factors. Do not exceed the prescribed dosage unless directed by your vet. 2. **Application**: Prednoderm is a topical medication that is applied directly to the affected skin area. Make sure to wash your hands before and after applying the medication to prevent contamination. Gently clean the affected area before applying Prednoderm to ensure proper absorption. 3. **Frequency**: Use Prednoderm as directed by your veterinarian. Typically, it is applied once or twice a day, but the frequency may vary depending on the specific condition being treated. Do not skip doses or apply more frequently than recommended. 4. **Duration**: Use Prednoderm for the full duration prescribed by your vet, even if the symptoms improve before the treatment is completed. Stopping the medication prematurely can lead to a recurrence of the skin condition. 5. **Avoid Contact with Eyes and Mouth**: Be careful to avoid getting Prednoderm in your pet's eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse the area thoroughly with water. 6. **Monitor for Side Effects**: Keep an eye out for any signs of side effects while your pet is on Prednoderm. If you notice any unusual symptoms or behaviors, contact your veterinarian immediately. 7. **Storage**: Store Prednoderm in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children and pets. Follow any specific storage instructions provided on the medication packaging. 8. **Consultation**: Regularly communicate with your veterinarian about your pet's progress while using Prednoderm. Your vet may need to adjust the dosage or treatment plan based on how your pet is responding to the medication. By following these guidelines and working closely with your veterinarian, you can help ensure that Prednoderm is administered safely and effectively to treat your pet's skin condition.

Important information to know when ordering prescription medicines

A prescription is required from your veterinarian before we can supply this product. 

If this is a new prescription, to enable immediate dispensing, please ask the vet to send a copy of the prescription to us prior to mailing it.

If the original prescription is in your possession, then please upload this to your pet's profile in VetRx prior to mailing it.

Please note that we must receive either a copy of the prescription from the vet, or the original prescription before we can dispatch your order. This does unfortunately add to the order processing time, however this is a requirement placed upon all pharmacies by the Health Regulators. 

Only once a conformant electronic prescription system is approved by NSW Health, will we be able to end the need for paper prescriptions.
