Morphine And Prednesone
(Newest replies first)
Updated
My rheumatologist gave me prednesone 10 mg Q.D
My Primary (PCP) gave me morphine sulfate 15 mg S.R. T.I.D
I recently was on methadone and prednesone, but I believe one cancelled out the other, or so it seemed to me. I so far do not think this will happen with the morphine and prednesone, but I have only been on the morphine four days.
Is ths in the literature? (methadone canceling prednesone )
Thanks for any infrmation

Hi:
Thanks for the information. I was an EMT in 1974 then later a paramedic, so I do know a bit about medicine. Drug interaction is not my strong suit. My parents owned and operated a drug store for 37 years, so I do know what drugs do pharmacodynamics, etc. is something I try and keep up with the literature.
Hello, Larney! How are you feeling?
Yes, you are correct. Prednisone is known to decrease the effect of Methadone due to its effect on a certain intestinal/hepatic enzyme.
However, there is no such interaction listed between it and the Morphine.
Learn more Prednisone details here.
Learn more Morphine details here.
The Morphine, however, is a narcotic opiate, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
Is there anything else I can help with?
