Does Prednisone Cause Dizziness?
(Newest replies first)

I felt dizzy and my doctor said I have excess fluid behind right ear. I was given prednisone. The next morning I cant walk, no balance, I have to hold on to something to walk. I spoke with my doctor and she said that this is normal. Is it?

Hi I was given prednisone 5mg tab and was not told about the side effects of vertigo and low blood pressure.I take the medicine for 2 days and worried that I might have some other sickness not knowing the vertigo is caused by the medicine.

Your doctor should have told you that you had vertigo and that prednisone can sometimes help. The side effects you were experiencing are created by vertigo, which can be quite nasty. Your equilibrium is messed up, you go one way and your body goes the other way. In Canada we have only one drug that is allowed in to treat vertigo and that is called Serc. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. Doctors have started small doses of prednisone to counter act the vertigo. I don't know if the results are positive or not.
