Relativity : For instance, if Prednisone is keeping you away from going back on life support due to your respiratory condition, suppressing the immune system from attacking a transplanted kidney,  keeping a severe case of lupus dormant, advantages are not questioned. There are grey areas where it comes down to an informed choice a patient makes with ones doctor.
