Prednisone Restrictions?

The reason for this is because many prescription drugs cause sensitivity to the sun, and Prednisone is one of them. Basically, it can make you sunburn very easily.

Doctors generally don't tell you the "why" of these things, but call the pharmacy if you want and they will be happy to go into more detail about this, but it's because you sunburn VERY easily on some medications.

Here is some info on Prednisone:

Prednisone And Sun

Wow, I was on prednisone too about two months ago. The good thing about prednisone is that it helps you build muscle. And muscle is very important to speeding up your metabolism. So the good news is that the weight should come off faster than if you gained 15 lbs from eating poorly. As for the asthma, try going on an elliptical machine. You do not have to be going vigorously to burn calories! Experiment with different resistance levels and speeds. But, you will also have to focus on your eating. It is all about portion sizes!! Also, drink lots of water (fills you up and is cleansing) and don't eat ANYTHING after 7:00 at night! Good luck!

I was started on a Prednisone burst today that will last three weeks.

The doctors advised me to avoid direct sunlight but wouldn't explain why.

So my question is, Why must I avoid sunlight while on Prednisone?
