How Long Will Prednisone Take To Bring Changes?
after taking bactrim ds for about 10 days I developed a reaction. My doctor gave a prednisone shot and prescription and recommend taking Benadryl. How long until the insanely itchy rash goes away? I have been off the bactrim for 3 days now and have been taking prednisone and using the Benadryl for that long as well.

Hello,
Allergic reaction induced rashes of bactrim should wear off within a period of 24 hours after the prednisone shot. If the same persist beyond a period of 1 day, you must consult your doc for dose adjustment or molecule addition for faster recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
