A member asked:
I'm pregnant and is it safe for me to take prednisone prescribed by a doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Steroids/pregnancy : Yes, it is safe. In fact, we actually give steroids to pregnant women in certain situations to enhance lung maturity of the fetus if they are having premature labor.
