Received an injection of prednisone & course of cefzil (cefprozil) antibiotic. is it safe to take a probiotic with this? worried about suppressed immune system?

Yes: It never hurts to take probiotic with antibiotic( may reduce the side effect of diarrhea) . An injection of steroid is not going to suppress your immune system .
