» sharatowne67 - Re: Can Prednisone cause kidney problems?
In response to message posted by obeqaj:I just had to respond to your question does prednisone have the capacity to hurt your kidneys, unfortunly yes. It can be a wonderful drug, but also can cause damages of all kind. I think that the best thing to do is to consult your M.D. re: your meds. I am not a doctor but I do know what the med did to me. It made me gain up to 229lbs, it made me have a diabetic problem. It caused problems with my kidneys and my heart. Since going off the med 2 months ago, I have lost 50lbs. I have started feeling alot better. No problems with the sugar, etc. I wish you good luck.
