Prednisone??

Has anyone else taken prednisone during pregnancy? I have been very sick with flu & pneumonia for 2weeks. My asthma is totally out of control. My PCP just put me on prednisone.
Have you taken it?

Re: Prednisone??

  • I have. I took it earlier in this pregnancy due to some things my RI found and my last one when I had bronchitis. The only thing I don't like is it keeps me up and I already have trouble sleeping. I'm sorry your asthma  is out of control and that you have pneumonia. I hope you are on the mend soon!

  • Have you asked your OB? I know my PCP won't give me anything unless my OB says ok.

  • I will be starting prednisone this week. I checked with my MFM OB and she said it is safe during pregnancy and will even help baby grow.

    Yes, PCP called OB to get the thumbs up. I am just nervous with all the drugs I've been on over the last 2 weeks.

  • Yes, I've been battling bronchitis for six weeks. So doc gave me a low dose of pred for 5 days. It helped with my awful cough and breathing.
