A member asked:
On prednisone for cough, weaning off next 4 days. can i have a few alcohol drinks this weekend while taking doses 20mg or less / day of prednisone ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A "few": when it comes to alcohol is beverages is far too "general" to be good medical advice.... Since both Prednisone and alcohol are GASTRIC IRRITANTS ,I (personally...my opinion only) would NOT have a drink until I have concluding my Prednisone therapy!!! Hope this helps Dr Z
