Suggest Treatment For Chest Viral Infection

I've just been prescribed prednisolone for a viral chest infection (I've got asthma and am having trouble breathing), but forgot to make sure my GP knew I'm also taking Microgynon 30 for contraception (I've been getting it from the family planning drop-in clinic, and they don't share records with your GP).

Will this combination affect either drug's effectiveness?
