Prednisone is effectively a prodrug, converted by the liver into prednisolone, the active steroid. It operates by mirroring endogenous corticosteroids’ anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities, significantly reducing inflammation and moderating the immune system’s response. This action makes it invaluable in treating conditions ranging from chronic autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis to acute conditions including, but not limited to, asthma flare-ups and severe allergic reactions.

Administration Guidelines ●Oral Administration: Prednisone tablets or oral solutions are usually taken with food or milk to mitigate gastrointestinal side effects.
