[QUOTE="JohnEGreen, post: 2161076, member: 223921"] Yup prednisolone interferes with the livers sensitivity to insulin in such a way that the liver keeps on dumping glucose into the blood stream even though the amount of insulin being produced would normally cause it to stop doing so this drives blood sugars up. If and when sensitivity of the liver is restored even temporarily due to the inconsistency of the action of preds it immediately stops supplying stored glucose and you can get a pronounced reduction in blood sugars this is also true for T1s who may be taking prednisolone.
