Prednisone stomach inflation

Why does Prednisone inflate the stomach after long- term use? Is there anything you can do to reduce the inflammation? Thank you!

Answer #1

What do you mean by inflate the stomach? Do you mean like swelling or bloating? because It does cause stomach irritation and stuff… It is a side effect, you probably want to talk to your doctor about it…
