prednisone and Pleurisy

prednisone has been researched along with Pleurisy in 40 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.

Pleurisy: INFLAMMATION of PLEURA, the lining of the LUNG. When PARIETAL PLEURA is involved, there is pleuritic CHEST PAIN.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A 65-year-old woman with dermatomyositis for which she had been treated for ten years with prednisone (latterly 15 mg daily) suddenly experienced severe pain in the left thoracolumbar region."4.79[Spontaneous hemothorax in dermatomyositis and long-term glucocorticoid treatment]. ( Bauriedel, G; Bittmann, I; Hertlein, H; Heuck, A; Näbauer, M; Nerlich, A; Schwaiblmair, M; Werdan, K, 1995)
" The patient's general condition and the pleuritic pain improved within 2 days under treatment with prednisone (50 mg daily); the depression, disorientation and fever receded within a week."3.69[Lupus erythematosus in old age]. ( Federmann, M; Morell, B, 1994)
" We report two patients who presented in acute addisonian crisis on more than one occasion while taking high doses of glucocorticoids (30 to 40 mg of prednisone daily) for underlying inflammatory disease (recurrent pleuropericarditis and sarcoidosis)."3.67Addisonian crisis while taking high-dose glucocorticoids. An unusual presentation of primary adrenal failure in two patients with underlying inflammatory diseases. ( Edsall, J; Holub, DA; Jacobs, TP; Whitlock, RT, 1988)
"The presentation with acute renal failure, the development of serositis, and the dramatic clinical response to empiric steroid therapy initially suggested the diagnosis of a systemic inflammatory disorder or vasculitis."2.40Steroid-responsive pleuropericarditis and livedo reticularis in an unusual case of adult-onset primary hyperoxaluria. ( Applegarth, D; Ganz, G; Levin, A; Magil, A; Rosenberg, F; Singh, S; Tai, C; Yeung, CK, 1999)
"SLEDAI-2K ⩽ 4 with no renal activity, pleurisy, pericarditis or fever (SDI > 1; OR: 0."1.51Predictors of low disease activity and clinical remission following belimumab treatment in systemic lupus erythematosus. ( Chatzidionysiou, K; Emamikia, S; Gomez, A; Johansson, P; Parodis, I; Soukka, S, 2019)
