Measure
Group A: Corticosteroid With Placebo
Group A will receive oral, liquid Prednisolone, which is the standard corticosteroid that we use here at Seattle Children's, and oral liquid placebo. The dose of prednisolone that Group A will receive will be 1-2mg/kg/day for 7 days and then the dose will be slowly reduced and then stopped after 3 weeks. This is a standard dose for IH treatment. Gastric prophylaxis (Zantac) will be given to help prevent any stomach problems associated with prednisolone. This treatment will be given for two months, as is our standard practice.
Group B: Corticosteroid With Propranolol
Group B will receive oral liquid prednisolone, and oral propranolol. As in Group A, the dose of prednisolone will be 1-2mg/kg/day for 7 days and then the dose will be slowly reduced and then stopped after 3 weeks. Oral liquid propranolol will be dosed at 2 mg/kg/day, following initiation in the Cardiology Clinic. Gastric prophylaxis (Zantac) will be given to help prevent any stomach problems associated with prednisolone.
