Is it common to have muscle aches after prednisolone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Steroids & muscles: Prednisolone is a steroid medication. It can cause myopathy (not very common). The symptoms of myopathy include muscle aches and weakness and eventual loss of muscle mass. This risk becomes greater the longer the duration of treatment.
