She was given prednisone 10 mg /5 ml. 1/2 tsp. 3 x a day for 1 week, iterax for her allergy. After prednisone treatment, Her latest esr result got high up to 84. Monocyte of 8.5 and eosinophils of 6.5. The rest are normal. Pls. Advise. Thank you
Hello.I suggest u to better stop the prednisone spy as its elevating ESR because it is a steroid and reduces immunity and so stop it and observe only with Atari spy.if your child is feeling God then u can stop the medicine .if still problem exists, consult pediatrician.rashes usually are allergic and cause need to be avoided and should be found by u at home.was all things are causing this rash need to be avoided for your child at home.so take care and avoid the allergen .
