    Just curious. My wife's had a horrible virus that's given her
    laryngitis for the last month. We're both singers, employed by a
    church, and with Easter coming up there's tons of singing to be done.
    She's screwed for solo work because of the laryngitis.

    She's been to the doctor several times to find a solution for the
    laryngitis, and the best she's been able to come up with is codeine
    cough syrup to reduce the hammering that coughing does to her larynx.
    One doctor prescribed Prednisone, assumedly as an anti-inflammatory.

    Would Prednisone act in the same way as illegal steroids do for
    building bulk?

    Prednisone is not an anabolic steroid; it's a catabolic steroid. It
    does just the opposite, which is good if you want to reduce swelling
    and inflammation.
