Avatar n tn Hello, Fatigue and dry mouth and dyspepsia are frequent side effects of Vesicare but it is unlikely to cause any sore throat. Your sore throat can be due to some viral infection. Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day and use over-the-counter throat lozenges. Salt water gargle is also a good way to relieve a sore throat. In addition, you can take anti inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen and paracetamol (acetaminophen) after consulting your general physician.

Avatar n tn Those sound like normal side effects of prednisone. Nasty drug but can save a dog's life. My golden has been taking 50mg daily for 2 months and the side effects are horrible.
1283791 tn?1276818314 Since I only had a 2 day supply out of the 6 day supply of prednisone they said my side effects from stopping the steriods houldnt be bad. Unfortunately that is not true. Does anyone know how long this will last or what I can do to ease this awful feeling? I am so scared nad this is makingmy anxiety rise....
Avatar f tn I firmly believe that my psychiatrist should have warned me about the side effects of this med or any meds he prescribes. By God, they are sure to warn against effects of Viagra and other drugs on TV!!!!!! I would have never thought of telling him about mouth sores and a sore throat. I made no connection at all. I don't know how long it's going to take to get out of my system, but we stopped it on Friday and I hope I don't have any untoward effects from that.
Avatar n tn you dont really get a sore throat . your throat just itches 4 sum reason. so that maybe y your friend clears his throat.
Avatar m tn The day after I was in pain and had a bad sore throat, still dry coughing. Is this a side effect of the Zantac? Or is this a sign my throat is healing from never having taken this kind of medicine before?
Avatar f tn m taking 10mg two times per day for two days then one time per day for two days. Will I have moon face or other side effects when taking this drug short term? I am nervous, I started tonight. I just want to feel better and like myself again.
Avatar f tn The long haul is certainly a mental challenge along with the physical effects, especially early in trt. Hope the sore throat improves.
Avatar f tn Anyone get migraine/headaches along with dizziness early in pregnancy?? I usually get migraines around my period but never the dizziness. I've also had a sore throat the past couple days as long with it. This has been going on for 2 days now for me. Any ideas ladies??
Avatar n tn I've noticed that after 3 months of daily prednisone that I have developed hair on my upper lip and jaw line. Has anyone else experienced side effects like this? I don't see how it will go away on it's own. How do you treat unwanted facial hair? This is quite upsetting to me. Thanks!
Avatar f tn I received I-131 on the morning of March 6th...by that night I had a sore throat. Not a regular sore thoat...felt like pin prickles...if that makes any sense. Developed a dry cough a few days after this and neck tenderness. Now today I've had a fever (100.5 - 101.5). Are any of these symptoms normal? Maybe it's just a coincidence and I'm getting a cold? I do get bronchitis alot but the cough that accompanies that is always a congested cough. This one is just dry.
Avatar n tn They told me I had a allergic reaction to something and gave me predisone and benadryl through IV. I went home and slept great, woke up today with a sore throat. I took my first presidone pill about two- three hours ago and have been experiencing extremely bad abdominal pain. Just when it seems to let and feels as though it is going away.... it comes back full force. Is this a normal side effect to this pill?
144586 tn?1284666164 The acid destroys the barrier to bacterial infection, and together with the prednisone the patient becomes prone to a sore throat, and infection which may rapidly progress to the lung. Thus, the drill is, when on high-dose oral predisone, avoid esophageal acid erosion. I don't know why this information is not widely known. This is accomplished by: (a) not eating within two hours of sleeping. (b) avoiding foods that contain methylxanthines (chocolate), which relax the sphincter.
Avatar m tn My wife on the other end is having fever constantly every two weeks, it goes away and come back with hig fever and she takes antibiotics and she gets sore throat every now and than from last three months and it is coninuing. I am scared if i still have HIV or any STD that i have passed on to her!
Avatar f tn I am just curios if anyone has experienced this. About a year and a half ago, I had a severe asthma episode and coschondrits for the first time. I was put on a 2 week coarse of Prednisone along with ibuprofen. By the end I had developed an issue swallowing pills. Even my small thyroid ones felt like they got stuck. Then it progressed to coughing up small hard bits of food, severe reflux, etc.
1580703 tn?1651904887 Persons exhibit varying degrees of sensitivity to oral doses of prednisone, so that is very possible, maybe even likely, that you will experience the side effects you have listed below. The effect on one’s adrenal gland is suppression of normal function, not destruction, but that suppression is undesirable for, the longer the gland is suppressed, the less likely is it to return to full strength, following tapering and then discontinuation of prednisone. One cautionary note.
Avatar f tn It is unfortunately a little harder to sleep and more concerning is I seen to have developed a mild sore throat and am constantly clearing my throat all day. I hate to have to stop something that is allowing my brain to function better but this is really annoying. It’s been a few weeks and I’m not 100% sure it’s the meds though an internet search does list it as a side effect. So I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this as well and how you dealt with it?
Avatar f tn Prednisone is a very, very powerful drug, so good and bad side effects. It shuts down your own adrenal system at anything over 5-7 mg a day I believe it is, so a whole bunch of psychiatric side effects are possible. Myself I was revved up, lots of energy, very out of it though and then horrible anxiety when they tried to taper me off - really painful. So welcome to the loonie club and we can all support each other....
Avatar m tn Please check the side effects of prednisone, which can be very serious. For me they were dreadful.
