Prednisone A Curse and A Blessing Community Group
This group is for the many of us that are on Prednisone and hate it! Yes, it heals what ails us, but it also creates another batch of problems!
hey,
so now I am at 20mg and slowly tapering down 2.5mg every 2 weeks...what can I expect in terms of side effects now that im finally coming down with the dosage?

The first two weeks I was fighting insomnia and INCREDIBLE hunger, not to mention irritability. I countered it with plenty of clean eating and exercise.
I am now on 15mg and the insomnia has subsided mostly as did the irritability. Still hungry, still having to watch my salt and fatty food/calorie intake.
So I guess from my experience thus far is the side effects will subside as you lower your dosage.
