Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Prednisone is a corticosteroid anti information drug. It works suppressing immune system response and reducing Inflammation.
It lowers immune response so the body is more likely to get infected from bacteria.
Hope I have answered your questions.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
