Prednisone is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the lungs, making it useful in treating lung infections, particularly those associated with conditions like Asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). By decreasing inflammation, it can alleviate symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath, improving overall respiratory function. However, it does not directly treat the infection itself, so it is often used in conjunction with antibiotics or antiviral medications if a specific pathogen is present. Always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate treatment options.
No, prednisone actually makes you more susceptible to infections and makes them harder to treat if you should get one.
Pneumonia is a type of lung infection, caused by a virus or bacteria. Symptoms may be difficult breathing with pain that runs through the chest on inhalation, cough, headache and fever. A cortisone drug eg: Prednisone may be given to clear up the infection as well as antibiotics.
Yes, Benjamin Burnley does have a lung infection.
One should only take Prednisone if it is prescribed by a doctor for you. The doctor will give you the correct medications to treat your urinary tract infection as well.
Oh, dude, giving Prednisone for a respiratory infection is like giving a plant water when it needs sunlight. Prednisone is a steroid that helps reduce inflammation, but it won't actually treat the infection itself. You'd need antibiotics for that. So, like, maybe save the Prednisone for when you're feeling all inflamed and leave it out of the infection party.
Do you mean lung ABCESS? If so, it is a localized infection (pocket) in the lung.
Pneumonia is one type of lung infection, but not all infections are pneumonia. It depends on which sort of bacteria are causing the infection and where in the lungs the infection is.
