Check w/SmartLipo MD: It is best to check with your SmartLipo doctor about whether or not they prefer you to continue to take prednisone to the procedure. If you are recovering from an allergic reaction, it is ideal to be fully treated and recovered, prior to undergoing any procedures. Your SmartLipo doc may want to postpone your procedure, so that it is performed under the safest conditions. Good Luck!
