Sintesi
BCG is a live attenuated vaccine, and immunosuppressive doses of prednisone may allow disseminated BCG infection and reduce the immune response. Vaccination is generally avoided during high-dose corticosteroid therapy.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Bcg vaccine live and Prednisone are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.
Perché avviene
Glucocorticoid immunosuppression impairs control of live attenuated organism replication and reduces vaccine response.
Cosa fare
Avoid live BCG during immunosuppressive prednisone therapy and delay vaccination until the drug has been stopped for the interval stated in local guidance (typically at least a month). Low-dose or short-course steroids may be acceptable per guidance.
