Gupisone contains prednisone, which is a steroid. The description fails to mention why you have been prescribed these medications.
Long term use of steroids is definitely not desirable because of the side effects associated. Short term use to tide over any crisis is actually beneficial and side effects associated with long term use is not seen here.
I would recommend you to take the Gupisone for the prescribed duration. YOu can discuss the above information with your doctor.
I hope the above information helps you. Thanks for writing into healthcaremagic. Have a nice day.
