Prednisone & Weight Gain
 |
I have been taking prednisone for 2 years and have just tapered it to no more prednisone. Weight has been a problem for me for 30 years. I have lost 15 pounds onWeioght Watchers in the last 3 months. I exercise at a gym for 1 hour a day 5 or 6 days a week, and lift weights on 3 days. Will the difficulty losing weight which has become much worse with prednisone lessen as time goes by? |

The difficulties losing weight should lessen over several weeks after stopping prednisone. |
