A member asked:

The last one cut off my question. i'm experiencing high bp for last 2 days since prescribed prednisone and antibiotic. average 155/105?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Corticosteroids: One major side-effect of Prednisone is hypertension, but that does not necessarily mean that is why your BP is up. Check things again a week or so after stopping the steroids and if still elevated, see your PCP and be evaluated and perhaps treated.
