Prednisone: Good Guy - Bad Guy
Prednisone is a synthetic hormone similar to hydrocortisone, a natural hormone produced by the adrenal glands. Prednisone belongs to a large group of similar drugs known as corticosteroids, which are prescribed for literally hundreds of conditions.

With organ transplants, prednisone stops the body's normal inflammatory reaction to foreign tissue and infection. It is usually given in tablet form but can be given intravenously when necessary, such as when someone is too sick to swallow a pill. The drug usually is used in combination with other agents to suppress the immune response. It acts by decreasing swelling and inflammation of tissues.

The downside with prednisone is its many side effects. The higher the dose or the more times you have been treated for rejection, the more side effects. As the dose is gradually reduces, side effects diminish. In most cases, prednisone can be reduced to a maintenance level by the end of about one year after transplantation. Also, use of combinations of drugs has allowed physicians to prescribe lower doses of prednisone than in the past.

Regardless of complications, never stop taking prednisone unless you are instructed to do so by your transplant team. Many problems can occur if prednisone is stopped suddenly. (See "Why Can't Prednisone Be Discontinued Suddenly?" for more information.)

Side Effects of Prednisone
The most commonly encountered side effects are:

Sodium retention
Increased appetite
Increased fat deposits
Increased acid in your stomach
Increased sweating, especially at night
Increased hair growth
Acne on the face, back, and chest
Bone and muscle problems
Growth problems in children
Eye problems
Increased sugar in the blood
Increased sensitivity to the sun
Delayed wound healing
Decreased ability to fight infection
Thrush (Candida) growth in the mouth
 
Prednisone is a corticosteroid. In contrast to anabolic steroids (used by ???bodybuilders???), corticosteroids are used in inflammatory conditions for their anti???inflammatory effects. They have a rapid onset of action, and profoundly affect many parts of the immune system as well as most other body systems. Corticosteroids are a cornerstone of treating most types of vasculitis, and are often used in combination with other immunosuppressive medications
 
Predinsone will have a negative impact on your body composition.

I must ask this. Where in the world do you get your information at. 2 out of every 3 of your questions are goofy. Why don't you take about 6 weeks off this site, do some reseach on bodybuilding, steroid use and then come back with more intelligent questions. Brother your questions have me thinking your user name should be changed to KID-DACA
 
Prednisone will cause your bones to get brittle and they could shatter
 
My friend with severe arthreitis was on that for a while.

He's anything but a musclehead.
 
My Dad has sarcoidosis and has to take the stuff for good, He has gained 20 lbs just because he said you eat all the time he said he is suprised he hasn't chewed his steering wheel off! But his dr said he is doing good weight gain is a side effect and most people gain at least 60lbs! And its not the kind of weight you want. Now if you lift hard and need something to bring your appetite up so you can get you calories in to gain the mass then yes you may benifit from it but I warn you get the munchies BAD

i had to take that crap during my bone marrow transplant... it's an immunosuppressant (used in this case to fight graft-vs-host disease) not an anabolic androgenic steroid. i say, "ask all the questions you want. just don't act on it for a very long time!"

LYAO??? boy, you are one ignorant son of a bitch. i never said corticosteroids do not work for MD. i said they do nothing do grow muscle. i believe you said, "he is getting big." use google a little bit longer and you will realize that not all steroids do the same thing.

i am done with your dumb ass.
 
I mean big as in gaining weight not muscle, dumb ass. The only reason he gained alot of weight is because prednisone increased his appetite. :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

Prednisone is not an anabolic/androgenic steroid. It will not do anything for muscle gains.

Tchau,
