Hello, Jody! How are you?

Methylprednisolone is a potent steroid, so it shouldn't be given to a child, unless it has been prescribed by their doctor. If it has been prescribed by their doctor, you should follow their prescribing instructions for safe use.

Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, fluid retention, insomnia, mood swings and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?
