Melatonin lower when prednisone is given, which artificially hijacks Cortisol levels, throwing the sleep-wake cycle out of whack. Prednisone is actually
How does prednisone work? Because prednisone is designed to be a synthetic version of cortisol, its functions mimic the natural functions of cortisol itself. Interestingly, the actions of prednisone in the body are dose-dependent. Lower doses of prednisone decrease inflammation, and high doses of prednisone suppress the immune system.
