I'm afraid I don't know much at all about embrel, but I have been on prednisone for IVF transfers.
The reproductive immunologist I saw prescribes a dosage of 20mg of prednisone after ovulation/EPU/ET, and doesn't reduce that dosage until you are out of the first trimester.
I have to admit that I think that particular dosage of prednisone was interfering with some other health problems I have (PCOS - severely insulin resistant), and in the end I went with a dosage of only 10mg for the cycle that gave us the munchkin I am pregnant with now (after three early miscarriages). As my arthritis didn't go into remission as much as we'd hoped with pregnancy, I'm still on the 10mg I've been on since transfer... looking to start reducing very soon, at last!
