Short-term side effects of prednisone may include: Stomach irritation, which could be the cause of diarrhea , headaches, insomnia, & mood changes (including irritability or aggression).
If they become too bothersome, please seek medical attention from the doc/pharmacist who prescribed the med to either alter or change the med which is more comfortable, however no interactions were reported between the other meds that you take.
Take care, be well, with god wishes!
