Prednisone and alcohol

[parache81]

For you on Prednisone, can one drink alcohol while being on pred?

I am currently taking 20 mg tapering 5 mg every week.

I need to know if it is ok for me to have a drink or two tomorrow to celebrate the new year.

Your answers would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. not planning on drinking like a maniac, just one or two drinks.

you 'll be fine. i currently having 20beers per week and tapering that back at the same amount as my 20mg pred


(but in all seriousness, you will be fine)

i certainly hope there isn't an issue as i've been drinking wine and an occasional mixed drink throughout my steroid treatment. oops.

can't do beer though - just gives me the runs.

That is a GREAT way to look at it! I should know better by now - you know - when you see a really old post that you have never seen before and you start scrolling down then BAM - really really shaved people all over the place with super human, uh, size. It never ceases to shock me!

I know...
ME(tired and groggy): "Oh cool, that looks like an interesting thread about hormones"
THREAD: "Take viagra an you can have these results"
ME (eyes bugging out of my head): " I am such a sucker"

I am almost disappointed - I never got to see any rude pictures!

Nah, I just saw the bit about sexy readheads or somesuch - no pictures. But no problem because if I wanna see a sexy readhead I just have to look in the mirror! LOL
