Comment from: 35-44 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

Received 60 mg dose daily while admitted to hospital. Had onset of excruciating migraine after first dose and this has lasted several days. Headache was much worse than the symptoms needing the drug Published: April 30, 2008 ::

It stopped my symptoms immediately. Does leave a bad taste in your mouth and I have swollen all over and I have some stomach trouble because of the treatment, but the side effects aren't near as bad as not being able to walk or move. Would do it again when needed. Published: May 15, 2009 ::

This shot hurts. Similar to a tetnis shot, be prepared. Published: May 16, 2009 ::

Worst part was getting a vein to cooperate. Minimal side effects, worst was the taste. It did treat my symptoms but still have some? Would take again if I absolutely had to. Published: April 16, 2009 ::

Comment from: 19-24 Male on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

This drug did not work for me at all. 5 minutes after I received it through IV my entire body went stiff followed by muscle spasms that lasted over 2 hours and took over an hour to correct with additional drugs! Needless to say the next day I woke up feeling like I'd run a marathon-my muscles were so sore from the contractions that the medicine caused. After all this the DR informed me that solumedrol has many side effects and I was probably allergic. Be careful! Published: February 04, 2009 ::

Comment from: Jeritxam, 35-44 Female on Treatment for 1-2 years (Patient)

This was my second time receiving 500mg solumedrol in a 1000cc bag. The first time it worked great for a few days. This time, it was horrible. My symptoms got worse and have been in much pain. It is a good drug if it works for you if not, it's very very bad. I have many many symptoms for years but no absolute diagnosis. Published: November 25, 2008 ::
