Is It Ok To Have Energy Drink After Taking Prednisone?

hello -- I am taking prednisone (taking 1 pill today) & 1 pill tomorrow,then I will be off of the taper that started last Tuesday for a muscular injury -- I just opened a sugar free energy drink and took a sip, then realized maybe I shouldn't be having this -- is there any harm in drinking an energy drink (8.4 oz size) because I am feeling a need for some afternoon caffeine.
