No, prednisone is not an anabolic steroid. Anabolic steroids are derived from androgens like testosterone and drive processes in the body that build tissue such as muscle mass, etc.
Just to get the terminology down: anabolism is the part of metabolism that promotes growth, while catabolism is the part that promotes the breakdown of substrates to provide energy.
Prednisone is considered a catabolic hormone, although it is not commonly discussed in these terms. Prednisone is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring hormone cortisol, which is a stress hormone that drives the breakdown of muscle to help raise blood sugar under certain circumstances.
