Side effects of methylprednisolone

2023-11-07 04:07:51
I am taking cartipred 16mg, two tablets sat and sundays. Does this have any side effects like weight gain and irregular periods? My dr says as its just weekend dose, no issues. But despite being on calorie deficit and doing regular workouts, my weight is not reducing and also my periods have gone irregular where it was always regular before started this medication. I am taking it to treat a skin condition

Risk benefit ratio of methylprednisolone is required to be considered when treated. So it completely depends on what disorder, you are taking it for and how bad it is I can only assume it's mostly for Vitiligo, though I could be wrong As much as we are made to believe, it true reality there are a limited set of drugs Also, "all" drugs have side effects, and it very relative to each individual how the drug plays inside the body. In a larger probability sense, such a dosing regime should not "usually" have weight gain or period issues A more detailed discussion with your treating physician is highly warranted to explore other options, based on complete details. You can consider a second opinion.
