Warnings and precautions

If you are being treated for COVID-19, do not stop taking any other steroid medication unless your doctor tells you to.

Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take Dexamethasone TAD:

• if you have ever had severe depression or manic depression (bipolar disorder). This includes having had depression before or while taking steroid medications like dexamethasone.
• if a close relative has suffered from this illness.

Problems with your mind can occur while taking steroids like Dexamethasone TAD:

• These illnesses can be serious.
• They usually start a few days or weeks after starting treatment.
• It is more likely to happen at high doses.
• Most of these problems go away if you lower the dose or stop treatment. However, if problems occur, you may need treatment.

Consult your doctor if you (or someone taking this medication), show any signs of mental problems.

This is especially important if you are depressed, or you might be thinking about suicide. In a few cases, mental problems have occurred when the dose was reduced or stopped.

Consult your doctor before starting to take this medication:

• if you have kidney or liver problems (cirrhosis hepática or severe renal failure),
• if you have or suspect you have phaeochromocytoma (a tumor of the adrenal glands).

if you have high blood pressure, heart problems, or if you have recently had a heart attack (myocardial rupture),

• if you have diabetes or a family history of diabetes,
• if you have osteoporosis (weakening of the bones), particularly if you are a woman who has gone through menopause,
• if you have had muscle weakness with this or other steroids in the past,
• if you have glaucoma (high eye pressure) or a family history of glaucoma, cataracts (opacity of the lens of the eye that causes vision loss),
• if you have myasthenia gravis (a disease that causes muscle weakness),
• if you have an intestinal problem or stomach ulcer (peptic),
• if you have mental health problems or have had psychiatric disorders that have been made worse by this type of medication,
• if you have epilepsy (a disease in which you have seizures or repeated attacks),
• if you have migraines,
• if you have a low-functioning thyroid gland,
• if you have a parasitic infection,
• if you have tuberculosis, septicemia, or fungal eye infection,
• if you have cerebral malaria,
• if you have herpes (mouth ulcers or genital herpes and simple herpes of the eye due to possible corneal perforation),
• if you have asthma,
• if you are being treated for blood vessel obstruction by blood clots (thromboembolism),
• if you have corneal ulcers and corneal damage.

Treatment with this medication can cause a phaeochromocytoma crisis, which can be fatal. Phaeochromocytoma is a rare tumor of the adrenal glands. The crisis can have the following symptoms: headaches, sweating, palpitations, and high blood pressure. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms.

Treatment with corticosteroids can reduce your body's ability to fight infections. This can lead to infections caused by germs that rarely cause infection in normal circumstances (called opportunistic infections). If you have any type of infection during treatment with this medication, contact your doctor immediately. This is especially important if you notice signs of pneumonia: cough, fever, difficulty breathing, and chest pain. You may also feel confused, especially if you are an elderly patient. You should also inform your doctor if you have had tuberculosis or if you have been in areas where intestinal worm infections are common.

It is essential to avoid contact with someone who has had chickenpox, shingles, or measles while taking this medication. If you think you may have been exposed to any of these diseases, you should consult your doctor immediately. You should also inform your doctor if you have ever had infectious diseases such as measles or chickenpox and if you have been vaccinated.

Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of tumor lysis syndrome such as muscle cramps, muscle weakness, confusion, vision loss or alteration, and difficulty breathing, if you have a malignant hematological process.

Contact your doctor if you experience blurry vision or other visual disturbances.

Treatment with this medication can cause central serous chorioretinopathy, an eye disorder that causes blurry or distorted vision. This usually occurs in one of the two eyes.

Treatment with this medication can cause tendon inflammation. In extremely rare cases, the tendon can rupture. This risk is increased with certain antibiotics and kidney problems. Contact your doctor if you experience pain, swollen or stiff joints, or tendons.

Treatment with Dexamethasone TAD can cause a condition called adrenal insufficiency. This can cause a change in the effectiveness of the medication after stress and trauma, surgery, childbirth, or illness, and your body may not be able to respond normally to severe stress, such as accidents, surgery, childbirth, or illness.

If you have had an accident, are ill, have any other specific physical stress, or require any surgery (even at the dentist) or are to be vaccinated (particularly with live viral vaccines) while taking or having finished taking dexamethasone, you must inform the person treating you that you are taking or have taken steroids.

If you need to have suppression tests (tests for the amount of hormone in the body), skin allergy tests, or bacterial infection tests, you must inform the person performing the test that you are taking dexamethasone, as it may interfere with the results.

Your doctor may reduce the amount of salt in your diet and give you some potassium supplements while taking this medication.

If you are an elderly patient, some of the side effects of this medication may be more severe, especially osteoporosis, high blood pressure, low potassium levels, diabetes, and susceptibility to infections and skin thinning. Your doctor will monitor you more closely.
