Corticosteroid Conversion Calculator

This is the standard glucocorticoid equivalency table, with the arithmetic done for you. Pick a corticosteroid and a dose, pick another to compare it with, and it returns the dose of equal anti-inflammatory strength along with the full table of all nine drugs, their salt and water retention, how long each one acts and what the dose you entered comes to in every one of them. Equal anti-inflammatory potency is not the same thing as clinical interchangeability, because the mineralocorticoid effect and the duration of action differ sharply between these drugs. It is a reference table only: starting, switching, reducing or stopping a steroid is a prescriber's decision, and there is deliberately no taper schedule here.
