Prednisone: Short-Term vs. Long-Term Use Risks – What You Need to Know!
In this video, Pharmacist Michael dives deep into the benefits and risks of prednisone — a powerful corticosteroid often prescribed to reduce inflammation. Whether you’re on short-term prednisone for a flare-up or long-term prednisone for chronic conditions, understanding its impact on your body is essential.
You’ll hear two real-life stories:
🔹 Emily’s Story – A short-term prednisone user who found quick relief from inflammation but experienced temporary side effects like insomnia and increased appetite.
🔹 John’s Story – A long-term prednisone user who benefited initially but later developed serious side effects like weight gain, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis after prolonged use.
We’ll cover:
✅ What prednisone does in the body
✅ Why short-term use is generally safer
✅ The risks of long-term use (moon face, bone loss, mood changes, and more)
✅ How to use prednisone safely – including tapering tips, monitoring side effects, and protecting your bones with calcium and vitamin D.
Prednisone can be both life-saving and dangerous, depending on how it’s used. That’s why it’s critical to follow your doctor’s instructions and understand the potential risks.
💡 Key Tips for Prednisone Users:
✔️ Always follow your doctor’s instructions.
✔️ Use the lowest dose for the shortest time possible.
✔️ Gradually taper off under medical supervision.
✔️ Monitor for side effects like weight gain, mood changes, and bone loss.
