Prednisone 20mg Side Effects

Updated

I have a terrible rash on my neck, chest and spreading to my breasts. I am on 20 mg. of prednisone (reduced from 30 mg) and have been for almost a month. Could this rash be from the prednisone??

Hi Georgia sanders,

Based on my research, "rash" is listed as one of the rare side effects of Prednisone. I recommend speaking with your doctor about this if possible, just so the symptoms don't get any worse.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Prednisone Details

I hope this helps!

Is there any risk of side effects if a child only took 20 milligrams of prednisone for one day, then totally stopped?
