A member asked:
Does prednisone cause lipomas and/or make the probability of getting them higher?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I know of no: evidence to suggest that Prednisone causes enlargement of or predisposition to formation of lipomata. Prednisone CAN cause weight gain, however, and make the lipomata seem larger.
