I have read that prednisilone has 30 times the anti-inflammatory
power of cortisol. Is its immunosuppressive power anywhere near as high?
Taking the immunosuppressive qualities of hydrocortisone as "1," what are
the relative immunosuppressive qualities of the following corticosteroids?
- Cortisone
- Hydrocortisone (cortisol)
- prednisone
- Prednisilone
If figures on their immunosuppressive power are lacking, what do you
think their proper rank-ordering should be, listed from least to most
immunosuppressive?
Thanks. And thanks for all of the help I have been given on this
list in the past.
