Allergic to Steroids

A MyLupusTeam Member asked a question 💭
Mcdonough, GA

Anybody else allergic to the steroids that are supposed to help us get out of flares? What did your doc recommend? I'm planning on bringing this up when I see mine on Thursday. I'm severely allergic to Decadron (tight chest and SOB) and Medrol (similar symptoms but less severe).

Have you tried prednisalone? You might have to fight with insurance because it is far more expensive.

All the best,
Linda
