Prednisone is an anti-inflammatory steroid. It often leaves the user with an uncomfortable amount of energy and causes trouble sleeping. It is sometimes used to treat inflammations that occur with allergies or asthma. In Crohn’s, it is used to boost other medicines and help them be more effective. The side effects are rough. Users often experience lots of energy, heartburn, acid reflux, acne, and insomnia. Longterm, it can lead to weakened bones, so if you’re on it, take calcium supplements. It can also kill the attention span and make the user irritable as hell. So, it’s great for chores but bad for relationships.
