I don't want Prednisone, they might as well get ready to order something else if they try

I've been on prednisone for a while now, It helps, but the side effects are rather brutat

Stephanie Lara, None of the other meds you mentioned. i do take the Hydroxychloroquine (paquenil), methotrexate, & folic acid though. Yes, I have to say yes, because prior to being prescribed these meds f/the Lupus I was a real mess. I still deal w/it, but nothing like before.

I am, been taking it f/5 yrs now. I have my.eyes checked every 6 months now. Used to be every yr., but since I hit 5 yrs it's every 6 months. So far so good, knock on wood.

I have taken this Medication for years now. It's my maintenance medication I tried to stop on my own but my lupus specialist told me it's fatal if I do that. It did help me for not flaring up.
