There are no known foods that interact with the function of prednisone, so in that respect there is nothing that needs to be avoided. However, prednisone can make you really hungry (and slightly hyper, especially for the first few days when you begin taking it), depending on how high your dosage is. They weight is normally lost when you stop taking predisone, but getting into bad dietary habits whilst on corticosteroids can be more difficult to break (you can find yourself eating far more sugar than normal on prednisone). If it is making you really hungry, it is still best to attempt to stick to a healthy diet, just to minimise the weight gain associated with corticosteroids (and to aid the weight loss when you stop taking the drug). I.e plenty of fruit, vegetables, wholegrains, lower fat dairy products and lean meats. Filling up on protein rich and fibre rich foods may help to make you feel full quicker. (E.g wholemeal bread, meat, tofu, quorn, legumes and dried fruit.)
