Only started it last night for my asthmatic bronchitis along with symbacort. Already breathing better, no wheezing and I finally got 4-5 hours of sleep since it eliminated my cough and inflammation. No side effects yet but it's too soon to tell.

Thought it was working. Throat got better . But 4 days into taking it and I started looking like a blowfish! Quick weight gain also. On the sixth day couldn't finish it. My face is swollen like the mumps , very red around cheeks and under eyes . It feels like there is a lot of heaviness in my head (hard to explain the feeling) like a lot of fluid and pressure built up. I have Essential Tremor and it has made that SO much worse! Wish it would have worked. I have took this before and the only thing it had done was make my shaking worse. But this time side effects much worse sadly. Read More Read Less

Upon finishing all of the dose pack (1week) I became very nauseated, dizzy and lightheaded. Second day it continues with an extreme upset stomach. My ears and eyes hurt.

It all started right after I had my eyeliner touched up with permanent makeup. I usually have petroleum jelly swiped over the line before I leave. Needless to say that wasn't done until I got home. Within 24 hrs my eyes swelled, turned red and had watery eyes. This continued for over the weekend and then my skin felt burned. I went to my Derm hoping he could help. He gave me Elidel and that made it worse(it spread to under both eyes. I called an allergist, got in same day. He gave me Methypred Dose-Pak for 10 day dosing. Instructions were to start off with 1. I took it that evening and by the morning, my condition was almost gone. Today is my last does of 16 mg and then I have to reduce the pills to wean myself off of them. The allergist said my problem was Mountain Cedar(I was the 3rd person that day with the problem). Since my skin was open from the Perm Cosmetic procedure, the Mountain Cedar played havoc with my eyes. For me, this drug was a lifesaver. It definitely worked for me. Read More Read Less

I had surgery on my thumb. Because of poor cast placement, my thumb has been very swollen. The surgeons answer was to make me take this stuff. It was only a five day dose, but I feel like I've had the flu for a week. Sore throat, puffy eyes, no energy. I finished the dose and the swelling is still there in my thumb and very painful. I'm not happy with anything at this point, but I'm sorry I let this stuff into my system. Not good!!

My treatment was for a five day span. I noticed that I was able to breath much better just after a few days.

This is the 2nd time for me on this med in less than 2 months for treatment of asthma. The 1st time I took this I had no side effects at all. Now, on day one of the multi pack I have had nausea, vomiting, headache, face and chest flushing, and sleeplessness. But I will continue to take it because I am no longer wheezing and only having to use my nebulizer 2 x a day and inhaler 2 x a day!

I was perscribed this because i had poison ivy very bad! I got a shot and never phased it and then was perscribed a cream and still did nothing. My body is very diffrent then normal people. I cant take night time medicine because i stay up all night and benadryl makes me hyper. So in most cases i get the opposite reaction if any at all. And this perscription has a side effect of sleeping trouble and of course i did experience this problem!! But other then that- overall it started clearing it up quickly! Read More Read Less
