Hello,
Both medications are corticosteroids and inhalation corticosteroids can be used in the early stages while the oral corticosteroids can be used in more complicated situations. You can get advised by an allergologyst before taking any medications and especially corticosteroids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
