A member asked:
Can you tell me how i could reduce the side effects of prednisone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO : The only way to reduce the side effects of prednisone is to take the least amount possible and still be effective in controlling the disease process. If your doctor feels it is possible try to taper with the doctor's guidance. Best wishes.
