About this product

Product Information

Approximately one million Americans per year take high doses of prednisone and related drugs (glucocorticoids) to treat serious illnesses and conditions ranging from asthma to rheumatoid arthritis to kidney disease to organ transplantation. Wile these medicines may have unpleasant, even devastating side effects, including gastrointestinal problems, intense mood swings, changes in hair and skin, and increased susceptibility to infection, they may also be the only treatment available for serious or life-threatening illnesses. When the world-renowned flutist Eugenia Zuckerman was prescribed prednisone to combat a rare lung disease, she teamed up with her sister, Julie R. Ingelfinger, a well-known specialist in pediatric nephrology and hypertension at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, to write the first ever, comprehensive guide for patients undergoing this difficult treatment. Packed with everything your doctor didn't have time to tell you, including recipes, exercises, and tips based on personal experience, "Coping with Prednisone "is an invaluable handbook for health-care workers, caregivers, and especially for patients themselves.

"There's now a highly useful, state-of-the-art, and engaging book to guide the many who must use long-term cortisone-related medicines. What a wonderful addition." --Herbert Benson, M.D., author of The Relaxation and Timeless Healing: The Power and Biology of Belief "I wish this book had been available in 1990, when I had a heart transplant; it would have saved me countless hours of anguish and concern...I will place this valuable book next to the dictionary and the encylopedia-books that I refer to all the time." --Samuel Sanders, concert pianist and chamber musician "This book is a superb resource for patients and professionals: a must-read for anyone taking or prescribing high-dose steroids." --Nina Tolkoff-Rubin, M.D., director of Dialysis and Renal Transplantation at Massachusetts General Hospital, "There's now a highly useful, state-of-the-art, and engaging book to guide the many who must use long-term cortisone-related medicines.

Coping With Prednisone and Other Cortisone-Related Medi
This has been the most information I have found regarding the benefits and side effects of prednisone, in a book. For me it is a necessary evil due to asthma. There is a lot on information online, but requires searching many sites.
