Can you use Prednisone for skin rash?

Yes, prednisone can be used to treat skin rashes.

Prednisone is a corticosteroid medication used to treat a wide range of conditions that cause inflammation (swelling, redness, itching, and pain). It reduces the body’s immune response, which can help skin rashes. Prednisone is available in several forms, including tablets, syrup, and cream.

Prednisone is a very effective medication, but it can also cause a number of side effects, including:
