Will prednisone affect birthcontrol, tri sprintec?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: There is no interaction found between steroids and birth control pills. The most common interactions come from some antibiotics,dilantin, phenobarbital and other barbituates, primidone, topirimate, carbamazepine, rifampin and St Johns Wort. If you have any questions with other medications consult with your physician. Good luck.
