    Reviewed prednisoneon 8/10/2020I was nervous at first, but I cannot believe how fast it reduced all the inflammation in the joints and the autoimmune response. It was a drastic improvement within just 1-2 days. It tastes horrible, but it works.

    Reviewed prednisoneon 7/14/2020when my nasal mucosa swelled in response to mold allergy I could barely breathe and my O2 Sats dropped. Prednisone has reduced swelling. It works so well that it would be easy to overuse the medication . On three separate I felt major improvement within 2 days

    Reviewed prednisoneon 7/10/2019I was prescribed prednisone after I fell and hit my ribs on a bench on the way down. I was diagnosed with rib contusions, but no fractures. Prednisone was to decrease inflammation, but I doubt it worked. I’ve taken it before for bad sinus infections, and it seemed to work, but each time I take it, all I want to do is sleep and cry. This time, along with those side effects, I also itched bad enough that at least 3 times a day, I was putting hydrocortisone cream on my arms.

    Reviewed prednisoneon 5/15/2019Had to take it for a while after I had an allergic reaction. Wasn’t very fun. Caused a weird sensation in my arm and leg muscles that kind of felt like overstretching.

    Reviewed prednisoneon 1/31/2017I've been on low-dose prednisone (3-5mg/day) for almost 10 years & it's done an excellent job at controlling my RA symptoms (in concert with Sulfasalazine & Plaquenil). Unfortunately after 8 years I did develop a cataract in one eye (a common side effect for long-term steroid use) which had to be surgically removed -- not fun! -- but insurance covered the surgery, recovery time was not bad, & my vision came back 100%. So in my opinion, ultimately it was worth it.
