Hello Madam, according to the Quebec Immunization Committee, prednisone at a dose higher than 20mg for at least 2 weeks is immunosuppressive.
Therefore, according to current recommendations, your isolation should be for
at least
10 days.
I remain available if you have any further questions!
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
