Anaphylactic reactions to prednisone and Benadryl aren't common, but both are possible. In the case that true anaphylaxis is occurring, epinephrine is given followed by oxygen. This is usually followed by the administration of steroids and antihistamines. If a person is allergic to both prednisone and Benadryl, supportive measures and alternative medications can be used.

Can antihistamines be taken at the same time as prednisone?Yes you can take Benadryl and Prednisone together.

The Prednisone will basically help treat the allergic reaction from the inside but doesn't help itching.
