Can I Take A Other Dose Pack Of Medrol After Taking It A Month Ago (Top voted first)

Updated

In July, I had a severe allergic reaction to fiber glass contact and nothing worked until my doctor gave me the dose pack of medrol. Now I appear to have the same itchy symptoms and I'm afraid it won't go away on it's own. My doctor gave me another dose pack of medrol to take. Is it okay to take it again so soon after having took it a month ago? Please advise...suffering in NJ!

Hello, Rob! How are you? I am very sorry about the allergy problem.

If your doctor has prescribed and approved it, then it should be okay. This is a steroid and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, fluid retention, acne and weight gain.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Thanks. I still haven't taken it because I'm afraid that since I just took the 6 day dose the end of July it's too soon. My general practicioner gave me the first prescription and my dermatologist gave me the second one only because I wanted it just in case. I normally take Benadryl at night so I took one this morning to help relieve the itchiness for now. I read that zrytec has given people withdrawal problems so I won't take that either. Thanks for your response. The itchiness has been driving me insane and no one seems to understand it but me or those who go through it!
