A member asked:
I'm on medrol (methylprednisolone) and am having sharp pains in my left upper abdomen. can this med cause pancreatitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gastritis/ulcer: High doses of steroid like Medrol (methylprednisolone) can cause gastritis and even stomach ulcer. Sometimes this can be prevented by taking a PPI type of drug (Prilosec etc) along with the steroid However you do need to contact your doctor immediately re. this problem. I am not aware of Medrol (methylprednisolone) causing pancreatitis .
