Membrane stabalizer: Prednisone is a medication that mimics a natural stress hormone your body makes. At therapeutic levels like you are taking they help your lung membranes recover/stabilize. With long treatment as you describe, your body may stop producing hormone & it may trigger problems if you stop abruptly. You may want to contact the doc about weaning off the med over several wks.
