Prednisone vs. Prednisolone

AHHH! I've always had a hard time trying to remember which drug (prednisone or prednisolone) my cats are on and the thought of even trying to pronounce them. Tip: If you Google it, an English lady will give you the right pronunciation of them.
Apparently, they are almost the same thing. So I did a comparison of the two and this is what I found out:
Prednisone
- It's a synthetic corticosteroid.
- It's effective as an immunosuppressant drug.
-
Prednisone is used to treat the following:
- Certain inflammatory diseases;
- Some autoimmune diseases; and
- Some types of cancers (when given at higher doses).
- There is a list of mild and serious side effects.
Prednisolone
- It's a synthetic glucocorticoid made from hydrocortisone (cortisol).
- It's a steroid medication.
-
Prednisolone is used to treat the following:
- Allergies;
- Certain inflammatory diseases;
- Some autoimmune disorders; and
- Some types of cancers (when given at higher doses).
- There is a list of mild and serious side effects when using this medication.

By looking over the two, it appears that they are very similar. So what's the big friggin' difference?
Well, prednisone is ACTIVATED by enzymes in the liver to turn into prednisolone. They have similar uses, but prednisolone is more readily absorbed by the body.
A study conducted several years back compared the effectiveness of prednisone versus prednisolone in cats and dogs. What they found was that oral prednisolone was more effective and preferred when it came to treating cats.*
So, if your veterinarian prescribes prednisolone over the later, you now have a better idea on why it was prescribed!

Hello everyone, I’m Edwin Tomas from New York , USA. and a few weeks ago, I was swindled off $325,000 worth of Bitcoins and Ethereum by a cryptocurrency trader who promised me huge returns on my investment.
I was not aware it was a scam until I tried to withdraw my profits and I was logged out asking to pay tax. I thought I had lost everything until I came across an article just like this about TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY.
A cryptocurrency recovery team who was able to recover stolen funds for many other people. I contacted TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY the following day and to my surprise. I was able to recover my money in less than 72 hours.
Their service is truly remarkable and I must commend them for getting my funds back from the hands of these swindlers.
