Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your question.
I read it carefully and I understand your concern.
Prednisone may give both side effects you mentioned and also many, many others.
If used properly though, at the correct dose and if the benefits of using it outweighs the risk and side effects, those side effects can be not considered at all.
Also, depends on what you are using it for, because if you are using it for a problem that gives those symptoms, then those may not be from prednisone.
I hope I have clarified you a bit. Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please kindly close and rate the answer.
