- This is an informational overview video on Prednisone. Prednisone is an inactive systemic corticosteroid, that is metabolized by the liver in active metabolite prednisolone.
Prednisone has high glucocorticoid proporties, which gives it effects in the regulation of your Immune system and metabole activities. It works much like your bodies own Cortisol.
Prednisone has low mineralocorticoid proporties, which give it effects in managing your electrolyte and fluid balances. Those effects work much like your bodies own Aldosterone.
Prednisone is available under several brandnames: Deltasone, Liquid Pred, Orasone, and Adasone.
In this video I will explain when to use Prednisone, how to use prednisone, what dosage to use of prednisone, what are the side effects of prednisone, and is prednisone safe to use when pregnant or while breastfeeding.
In addition I will also explain if prednisone is safe to use while driving, and if prednisone is safe to use with alcohol.
This video is meant for patients and layman. I also made a more in depth video suitable for medical students and medical professionals. You can find a link to that video here:

After I took this medication, I had a lot of energy to work , clear skin and difficulty sleeping
One weekly blast of these in winter when feeling chesty is the best, as long as only a week once a year, no longer as longer use comes with some horrible side effects
This is poison. Why is this even on the market??
I have psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. My rheumatologist prescribed me 10 mg once a day in the morning. It makes me look very bloated, hair loss and can give me an attitude problem. I usually take it my biologics aren't working and I'm in between injection change. It really helps with my pain. But once I stop taking it, I have a huge breakout of psoriasis. I only take it when I really need it. Not every single day like my doctor wants me to.
Every reply is “ask your doctor”. What’s the point in this video? Not informative.
Is prednisolone 5mg used for common cold and allergic cold
I went to an ENT Specialist bc I had fluid on my ear per my PCP. The ENT Specialist said that my nose was inflamed, which caused my Eustachian tubes to swell. I was given a 12 day supply, however, I only took the Prednisone for 6 days. The Prednisone made my anxiety worse, so the ENT Specialist said it was ok to abruptly stop taking the Prednisone. Well according to my PCP’s nurse, I was suppose to taper off of them, not just stop. Now, I’m having headaches, I wake up feeling like I’ve been drugged…I feel like I have a sinus infection, my ears feel full & when I mention this to the ENT doctor, she says I’m fine. Does Prednisone make your sinus worse? Is this all normal?
Really good information. I have Interstitial Lung Disease and Multiple Sclerosis, both of these diseases benefit from oral prednisone. Thanks for this informative video.
I had that med for few times, 3 tablet for 3 days then 2 tablet for 3 days 1 tablet for 3 days then 1/2 tablet for 4 days left me with gastric
I'm currently in shock treatment because of my eczema. My derma prescribed with this dosage and time schedule 3 tablets for 3 times days, for 3 days. Next, is 2 tablets for 3 times a day, for 2 days. And lasty, 1 tablet for 3 times a days, for 2 days. I hope my body can tolerate the minor common side effects.
