Can prednisone raise psa level

Yes, prednisone can potentially raise PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels. As a corticosteroid, it may affect the immune response and inflammation, which can influence PSA production. However, the relationship between prednisone use and PSA levels can vary among individuals, and other factors may also contribute to changes in PSA levels. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation if there are concerns about PSA levels.
