Steroids clearance from body
How long does body takes to clear Steroids out from the system..
My mother was on steroids during covid for 10 days.
Took her last dose on 7th May after tapering (4mg medrol)
Just worried if it is still harming her body, or by this time now the body would have cleared out the effects of steroids.
Please suggest.
Worried about a lot of things seeing the news.
Her FBS is 106, taking Metformin 500
