What are the uses of methylprednisolone tablets, and are there risks with long-term use? - #14643
I was prescribed methylprednisolone tablets, but I don’t fully understand what they do. I read that they’re steroids, but I don’t know how they work or why they’re used for so many different conditions. What are the most common methylprednisolone tablet uses? I see that they’re prescribed for inflammation, allergies, and even autoimmune diseases—how does one drug treat so many conditions? Also, how quickly do they start working, and how long do the effects last? I’ve also heard that steroids can have serious side effects, especially if used for a long time. What are the risks of taking methylprednisolone tablets, and how can they be minimized? Are there natural alternatives or Ayurvedic remedies that work similarly for inflammation without the side effects? If anyone has taken methylprednisolone tablets before, what condition were you using them for, and did they help? Did you experience any side effects, and how did you manage them?
