prednisone and Calcinosis-Raynaud Phenomenon-Sclerodactyly-Telangiectasia

prednisone has been researched along with Calcinosis-Raynaud Phenomenon-Sclerodactyly-Telangiectasia in 4 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.
