A member asked:

Prednisone out of your system how long when stopped?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The externally taken prednisone will be out of your body in 24 hours. Your body makes the equivalent of about 5 mg of prednisone a day as a natural hormone. You will have some steroid in your body always.
