prednisone does cause all kinds of side effects.
everything from feeing depressed, to being super hyper. It has to be tapered off, when you have been on it long term. It can effect sleep and your appetite. I hope you don't have to take this medication a long time. I had an experimental protocal for an auto-immune deficiency in the 80's. To calm the effects of the drugs I was taking, DNCB a topical immunosupressant, I was given prednisone. I hated that drug more than the DNCB treatment. It is a medicine to be careful with. ginnie
