I am assuming you are using prednisone to treat an epidermal (skin) rash/irritation? If that specific cream is not alleviating the symptoms, it may be in your best interest to have a MD examine it - at that point, the correct medication will be prescribed. RBB, MD
I use prednisone eye drops for sarcoidosis in my eye
The term 'financial contagion' refers to a situation in which some financial institutions or a certain region of the economy are affected by small shocks, which then spread to other institutions and/or regions of the economy, with the potential to spread from one country to another. The imagery of a financial contagion is similar to the use of the term 'contagion' in medicine, where it refers to the spread of an infection. The threat of financial contagion is one of the main reasons for financial regulation to exist.
Yes
As the 1980s progressed, crack cocaine continued to ravage American cities like a deadly contagion. As quoted from the book "Pyro Marketing," by Greg Stielstra. "More recently the idea of marketing as a viral contagion has been going around." "In this view the marketing message is a virus spread from person to person like the common cold."
coz Prednisone tablets are very sensitive to dissolved gasses.
The use of Prednisone can cause Avascular Necrosis. This would affect the bone area. It has been reported that those who have taken doses greater then 20 milligrams a day of Prednisone have experienced this condition, particularly in the hip area.
Depends on the animal. Horses cannot convert prednisone to predinisolone, so prednisolone is the drug of choice.
The use of anti-inflammatory drugs can help relieve the joint and muscle aches that might occur when withdrawing from Prednisone. To reduce the side effects from Prednisone withdrawal doctors recommend tapering off the drug slowly.
The botfly larvae are laid directly on mammal hosts or by the use of intermediate vectors. The larvae are obligate parasites that bore into the skin. I suppose than this is not aseptic and could lead to contagion from opportunistic microorganisms, but the initial transfers and intermediate vectors are not considered contagion.
Answer Nothing can replace prednisone. I suggest you go to your local A&E department or pharmacy, preferably with a previous prescription slip and tell them that you have lost your prednisone. They should provide you with emergency supplies. Prednisone causes adrenal suppression, therefore you will stop producing your natural steroid. If you simply stop taking prednisone, then you can go into Addisonian crisis and die. This is why you MUST go to your A&E department or book an emergency appointment with your doctor. You may also be able to get emergency supplies from your pharmacy.
Yes, there is an interaction between those 2 drugs. You should never stop prednisone without speaking with your doctor, this drug has to be stopped over many days. Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that may lead to cardiac problems. These problems might be exacerbated by prednisone use (depending on the dose..) Prednisone is also a stimulant working on adrenals (epinephrine, norepinephrin). You should avoid those 2 drugs together.
