Prednisone is a corticosteroid medication often prescribed for rapid relief of acute inflammation, commonly referred to in practice as Prednisone inflammation treatment. It quickly calms immune overactivity in conditions such as asthma flares, allergic reactions, arthritis flares, skin rashes, and some autoimmune diseases.
Because prednisone affects the body's natural stress hormone system, planning both the dose and the taper schedule is important, even for short-term courses.
