Coping With Prednisone : (*and Other Cortisone-Related Medicines) : It May Work Miracles, but How Do You Handle the Side Effects by Eugenia Zukerman (Introduction), Julie R. Ingelfinger, Amazon.com

Doctors' Answers to "Frequently Asked Questions" - Prednisone:"These comments are made for the purpose of discussion and should NOT be used as recommendations for or against therapies or other treatments. An individual patient is always advised to consult their own physician."

Prednisone, RXlist.com:"Naturally occurring glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone and cortisone), which also have salt-retaining properties, are used as replacement therapy in adrenocortical deficiency states. Their synthetic analogs are primarily used for their potent anti-inflammatory effects in disorders of many organ systems."
http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/pred.htm

******************************************************

Prednisone (Cortisone Taken Internally):"Cortisone is a chemical (hormone) made by the human body, and is essential for life. Cortisone or corticosteroids, are widely used in medicine. They control allergies, inflammation, and many disease processes. Cortisone compounds can be applied to the skin in the form of creams, or taken internally. We are describing the use of cortisones taken internally, either by mouth or by injection."

Medical Indications For Use:

Prednisone and Aspirin Doesn't Prevent Miscarriages:"WASHINGTON, July 16 (UPI) -- A study of women who have had a series of miscarriages has cast doubt on the usefulness of a common treatment. Researchers say today in The New England Journal of Medicine that dosing these pregnant women with prednisone and aspirin does not seem to prevent additional miscarriages."
http://www.gentlebirth.org/archives/miscpreg.html

Myasthenia Gravis Center:"I have been on Mestinon and prednisone since 1981. I did not tolerate Mestinon well and have been getting weaker over the last few years. Do I need a drug holiday from Mestinon? My doctor wants to try Imuran (azathioprine). What do the studies show? What are the side effects?"
