Re: Pregnancy, Prednisone??

[Guest guest]

I don't have any personal experience, but I work in an infusion

(1000mg) iv during her pregnancy and baby was just fine. Hope your

improves quickly so you don't have to take meds and worry.

I'm 35 weeks pregnant and I take anywhere from 1-5mg/day of prednisone. Both

are fine with my rheum and OB.
