Orotim Oromucosal Paste

Your doctor may prescribe this medicine to treat several conditions, including:

• Severe allergic reactions: Orotim Oromucosal Paste helps by calming your body's immune response to rapidly reduce swelling, redness, hives, and itching.
• Arthritis and joint disorders: It targets painful joint swelling and stiffness, allowing for smoother and more comfortable movement.
• Skin conditions: It provides relief from intense itching and scaling associated with severe eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
• Autoimmune diseases: It helps manage conditions like lupus by preventing your immune system from mistakenly attacking healthy tissues.
• Asthma and breathing issues: Oral Orotim Oromucosal Paste may be prescribed in certain situations to reduce severe airway inflammation, such as during short-term treatment of serious asthma flare-ups. However, inhaled corticosteroids are generally preferred for long-term asthma control because they provide targeted treatment with fewer systemic side effects.

When taken as prescribed, this medicine offers several important benefits, including:

• Rapid Relief from Severe Inflammation: Orotim Oromucosal Paste helps reduce intense inflammation in the body by targeting the underlying inflammatory process, which may provide faster relief from swelling, pain, and discomfort during flare-ups.
• Improved Movement and Daily Comfort: By reducing inflammation affecting joints and muscles, Orotim Oromucosal Paste helps improve mobility, ease stiffness, and support a better ability to perform everyday activities.
• Better Control of Severe Allergic Reactions: Orotim Oromucosal Paste helps manage serious allergic inflammation and reduces the risk of symptoms becoming more severe, helping patients feel more comfortable and return to their normal routine.

• Orotim Oromucosal Paste can be taken with food or milk to avoid stomach upset.
• It is usually taken 3-4 times daily or as prescribed by your doctor.
• Swallow Orotim Oromucosal Paste as a whole with a glass of water.
• Do not crush, chew, or break it.

• Reduce salt intake: Eat a low-sodium diet to help prevent fluid retention and minimise the risk of high blood pressure while taking this medicine.
• Boost calcium and vitamin D: Focus on eating dairy products, leafy greens, or taking supplements to protect your bones, as oral steroids can weaken bones over time.
• Monitor blood sugar: If you have diabetes, check your blood glucose levels more frequently, as this medicine can cause temporary increases in blood sugar.
• Practice good hand hygiene: Wash your hands frequently and avoid close contact with people who are sick, as this medicine lowers your body's ability to fight infections.
• Eat potassium-rich foods: Include bananas, oranges, and potatoes in your diet, as this medication can sometimes lower potassium levels in your body.

• Do Not Stop Suddenly: Never stop taking Orotim Oromucosal Paste abruptly, as sudden discontinuation may cause withdrawal symptoms or a worsening of your condition. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for gradually reducing the dose.
• Carry Medical Identification: Keep a medical alert card or wear a medical alert bracelet stating that you are taking an oral corticosteroid, especially during emergencies when you may be unable to communicate.
• Avoid Live Vaccines: Do not receive live vaccines, such as oral polio or measles vaccines, while taking Orotim Oromucosal Paste unless specifically advised by your doctor, as it may increase the risk of infections.
• Inform Healthcare Providers Before Procedures: Always tell your doctors, dentists, and surgeons that you are taking Orotim Oromucosal Paste before any medical or dental procedure, as it may affect treatment decisions.
• Monitor for Signs of Reduced Immunity: Watch for unusual bruising, slow-healing wounds, or increased symptoms during physical stress such as severe infections or injuries, and report these changes to your doctor promptly.
