A member asked:
Medrol (methylprednisolone) 6wks ago, then pred for 8days a month later. off pred for a week now, but may need another 5 days of it. will this 3rd round kill my adrenals?

Unlikely but: it may great impact your bone however with repeated dosing within such a short time. You may consider getting a 2nd opinion as to why you need oral cortisone this often. At this rate, your adrenal may eventually slows down .
