"I have severe, and I mean severe, heat rash. This medicine clears it up every time within days. Would be suicidal by now, otherwise, noticed water retention/weight gain, though, but worth it for the few days a year I need to take it."

"To me, prednisolone is a wonderful drug. It helps me to solve several of my illnesses. First, it strangely resolves my finger dermatitis problem on my hands. Before, my skin got cracked and bloody, I would feel my fingers had rashes that were swollen, painful, and itchy at the same time. I took prednisolone tablets regularly for about six months, starting with 3 x 5 mg daily down to 3 mg daily. Then after that, just take 3 to 4 mg as and when needed now. It has stopped 99% of the problem."

"Had itching, redness, and rashes between fingers, which was named as contact dermatitis from dishwashing liquids. The Dr. gave me Isolone for 7 days. Even within the first 2 days, itching disappeared and rashes faded. Very effective."

Orapred (prednisolone) "My 4-year-old was prescribed this for a rash covering his entire body. It was determined to be contact dermatitis (or an allergic reaction to something he had either eaten or touched). The medicine cleared up the rash in just a few days."
