What Are The Side Effects Of Prednisone Tablet?
I took 3 . . 4 mg tablets of prednisone today 2 in AM and 1 after lunch. I now have a splitting headache, blurred vision, stomach ache - feeling like I m going to throw up, dizziness and feeling like my eyes are going to explode. The doctor told me to stop taking it but the symptoms haven t gone away. How long will it take to feel better?
