A member asked:
After taking prednisone, how long does it take for levels of iga to be clear of the suppressant effects of the drug on the iga levels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No effect: I am not aware of any steroid effect on IgA level although it may reduce IgG level somewhat on some people after prolonged high-dose prednisone exposure.
