User Reviews for Methylprednisolone

MethylPREDNISolone Dose Pack (methylprednisolone) for Hay Fever: This medication seems to help when I am having a extreme allergy attack. My doctor prescribed this to help with a bad sinus infection I had and it worked well. I was feeling much better after the first day of pills.

I have been prescribed methylprednisolone dose pack in combination with an antibiotic (usually azithromax dose pack) on several occasions for acute bronchitis and asthma with laryngitis. It is the only medication that helps relieve the symptoms. I haven't had any adverse reactions to the methylprednisolone.

MethylPREDNISolone Dose Pack (methylprednisolone) for Dermatologic Lesion: This steriod helped kill the pain of my condition. The only bad thing is I tended to become very tired every time I took the medication. Overall a decent product.

methylprednisolone for Rheumatoid Arthritis: I have a lot of joint pain and swelling in my thumbs and feet. One of my toes is so swollen that I can't wear any shoes! The steroids reduce the swelling so much that I can wear my shoes again, and I'm not limping. Of course, it's very temporary, but at least I can enjoy feeling normal for a few days!

Solu-Medrol (methylprednisolone) for Osteoarthritis: I have osteoarthritis, some days the pain in ALL my joints is very bad. I have taken Solumedrol several times and have relief (not stopping the pain) for a few months, but I need it again.

Solu-Medrol (methylprednisolone): I have multiple sclerosis and take Solu-Medrol through an intravenous infusion. I have taken it three times, and it seems to get rid of the symptoms, I get through my MS attacks, very quickly. Sometimes it works right away (within hours), sometimes it takes the full 5 day treatment. Even if you do not immediately feel like the symptoms are getting better, it doesn't mean that the Solu Medrol isn't working. It is in fact stopping the attack of the brain. The only thing that I do not like is the metallic taste you get in your mouth. Also, there is a really odd urine smell that comes out through your pores. My blood sugar levels go up when on Solu Medrol, but the body usually corrects this.

methylprednisolone for Inflammatory Conditions: 2 herniated discs in my neck make life difficult. With this medication it's like I am 18 again. No swelling, no pain and life is good. To bad it's so short lived. I have it once every 6 weeks for a week at a time.

methylprednisolone for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Having osteoarthis,fibromyalgia,osteoporosis along with RA this medication is a wonder drug for me.I take the mythlpred 4mg pak.It gives me the relief to be able to live a normal life even it is for 2 to 3 months at a time,

Medrol Dosepak (methylprednisolone) for Rheumatoid Arthritis: I've been prescribed Medrol Dosepak on two occasions over the last 10 years. Each time I experienced relief from the pain and swelling within a few days. I did not experience any side effects.

methylprednisolone for Gout, Acute: Immediate Relief

MethylPREDNISolone Dose Pack (methylprednisolone) for Gout, Acute: I usually wait to take this drug in the hope that the gout pain will pass. I ALWAYS regret not taking it right away. You feel relief in a couple of hours and I have never had a side effect or stomach upset. For me it works great. Sometimes though the day after I take the last pill my toe knuckle swells up again. I wait again to restart the dose.

If I take 1 to 2 pills a day (4mg) the pain in my knees go almost completely away. Before taking the pills I can hardly sleep, or bend my knees. While taking the med. I can walk, sit, and sleep without pain. Its amazing. But I was given this med. for something else and accidently discovered the relief. I thought I was going to have to have surgery on my knees for relief, but I don't want to now. I have had no side effects.

methylprednisolone for Rheumatoid Arthritis: with this medication I am able to walk and have free movment of my arms that are worthless without it! this is a godsend best thing to happen to me!

Medrol Dosepak (methylprednisolone) for Atopic Dermatitis: The Dosepak worked very well for me. After about the 3rd day, the swelling and itching had reduced considerably.

methylprednisolone for Gout, Acute: The immediate relief was like a miracle. No pain within 12 hours of starting treatment. Amazing

Medrol Dosepak (methylprednisolone) for Osteoarthritis: Truly a quality of life improver. I can't thank my doctor enough for giving me this prescription when I have debilitating flare ups. Just have to rest and not over exert your joints when on this medicine. Let the swelling subside before returning to normal activities. For me, 2-3 days, and I feel great.

methylprednisolone for Osteoarthritis: The medication was a wonder drug and I was able to move with great mobility. I was able to walk without help and bend but the one thing it did do was raise my blood pressure. I got off of it and now I have to monitor my blood pressure to see that it does not go dangerously high. I wish they could make a medication similar to this without that side effect because having the pain in something awful.

Medrol Dosepak (methylprednisolone) for Asthma: Works effectively

methylprednisolone for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Methylprednisolone (medrol) has far fewer side effects than most other steroids. It still, though, has increased appetite, especially when not taken steadily, so be aware of how much food you consume. It is a highly effective systemic steroid and requires 20% less to achieve the same effects mg for mg than prednisone. It is, however, weak compared to dexamethasone (decadron).

methylprednisolone for Rheumatoid Arthritis: This medicine worked great! I could walk, jump, run, and do all the things any other teen could do. The negative parts of this medicine include weight gain, headaches, and other serious things like glaucoma (the reason I had to get off, so please get eye exams when on this). The hardest part is getting off after you've been on it for a while. I flared up to the point where I was back to square 1. Also, never miss a dose. Despite all of that, most people don't have those side effects and it does seem to be effective even in the long run. It's also relatively cheap and definitely worth a try.

MethylPREDNISolone Dose Pack (methylprednisolone) for Inflammatory Conditions: Brought the swelling around my eye, due to an allergic reaction, down within hours. Took it in the morning and by evening was looking fairly normal and ready to face society.

MethylPREDNISolone Dose Pack (methylprednisolone) for Gout, Acute: Fast acting relief felt in the first day

Solu-Medrol (methylprednisolone) for Gout, Acute: Sometimes takes several hours to work after being administered but usually relief is dramatic. Best medication I have had to relieve the pain and swelling after an acute attack of gout without having a Cortizone injection in the joint. The injection in the joint is very painful but works quicker, but i.v treatment is the best route.

methylprednisolone for Gout, Acute: With the first dose there was a huge reduction of my pain. I get gout every 2 to 3 years and have always had success with this medication. The pain is completely gone in just a couple of days everytime.

methylprednisolone for Inflammatory Conditions: This was the most effective medicine yet for my polymyositis. I was relieved of my symptoms within 8 hours after suffering from a relapse.
