Glucocorticoid dosing and implications for vaccination: Evolution of global definitions Despite widespread adoption of β€œhigh-dose” glucocorticoid definitions across international immunisation guidelines (i.e., prednisone-equivalent dosing >20 mg/day, or >2 mg/kg/day in children), the rationale remains unclear. Literature searches were performed through academic databases for this narrative review to identify relevant evidence regarding glucocorticoid dosing on vaccine responses and safety.
