Does Methylprednisolone Cause Side Effects?

My doctor prescribed methylprednisolone for my chronic sinus infections. I am nervous about taking it after reading all the potential side effects. Also, I have mitral valve prolapse and am prone to heart palpitations. Should I still take this medication?

Hello,

The side effects of Methylprednisolone are very rare in our daily practice. Instead, it is a medication that reduce the inflammation and is very effective in relieving the symptoms. I recommend to use it without worries.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
