prednisolone and Eosinophilic Esophagitis

prednisolone has been researched along with Eosinophilic Esophagitis in 4 studies

Prednisolone: A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states.
prednisolone : A glucocorticoid that is prednisone in which the oxo group at position 11 has been reduced to the corresponding beta-hydroxy group. It is a drug metabolite of prednisone.

Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Chronic ESOPHAGITIS characterized by esophageal mucosal EOSINOPHILIA. It is diagnosed when an increase in EOSINOPHILS are present over the entire esophagus. The reflux symptoms fail to respond to PROTON PUMP INHIBITORS treatment, unlike in GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE. The symptoms are associated with IgE-mediated hypersensitivity to food or inhalant allergens.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The role of systemic steroids in the treatment of esophageal strictures in children with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is poorly defined."1.62Systemic steroids have a role in treating esophageal strictures in pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis. ( Amil Dias, J; Auth, MK; De Angelis, P; Domínguez-Ortega, G; Espinheira, MDC; Hoofien, A; Kalach, N; Oliva, S; Rea, F; Romano, C; Zangen, T; Zevit, N, 2021)
"Although the key features of eosinophilic esophagitis have been increasingly described over recent years, this entity is still often not considered and consequently diagnosis is often either not made or delayed."1.38Eosinophilic esophagitis and food impaction: an instructive case. ( Day, A; Lemberg, D; Tilakaratne, S, 2012)
