Can I take allergy medicine after Sclerotherapy?

I had the procedure 2 days ago. Today my GP prescribed MethylPrednisolne, 4mg for allergies. Is this safe to use?

It is safe to use but you should probably discuss it with your vein specialist.

Usually it is safe, but I would recommend being seen by your treating vein physician.

The only thing you really need to avoid is any blood thinners for about 10 days before and after a treatment.
