Guest guest Posted July 18, 2001 Report Share Posted July 18, 2001 Jodi, I have been on prednisone (typically a dose-pack - 2 weeks) for poison oak and asthma several times (although not since I started Singulaire). The only symptoms I noticed were insomnia for the first couple of high dose days (60 mg) and then excessive appetite towards the end. I've never been on prednisone for more than a couple of weeks at a time. ... but then I'm that stereotypical, non-emotional stoic Nordic type.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I realize most of us have taken this drug at some point (myself, off & on for over 20 years) & I don't want o be preaching to the choir but considering it is a steroid, it is going to make us gain weight naturally. To be honest, I've not heard of it increasing your appetite but that means absolutely nothing considering........ After all the weight gain discussion, I just wanted to throw that out there and see if it was caught. lol! Big gentle hugs, Nae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
