Prednisone is one of the more popular drugs now used to treat conditions such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. The drug is administered either through the oral route or via intramuscular injections by some doctors. Prednisone is used to treat conditions such as extremely severe asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, some kidney diseases and severe poison ivy inflammation. Prednisone is a corticosteroid drug that is also well known for the side effects that it induces in patients. As the drug is designed to specifically affect the body’s entire immune system, some researchers are looking at this as one of the reasons as to why it induces so many side effects in patients.
