Hello.
Welcome to HCM.

I understand your concern.
See, first of all, this is a good combination drug you have been prescribed. You need to take it regularly for better effect. Take antacids or PPIs alongwith.
Now, painkillers and steroids have their own side effects but that happens only in prolonged use. Stomach problems and ulcers can happen eith painkillers whereas steroids can affect all systems. I don't think you will have to use these for so long to cause any major side effects. Just get followed up by your doctor regularly.

Hope this was useful.
Regards
