Long-Term Side Effects of Systemic Steroids

When systemic steroids are used for long periods of time, or when steroids are taken on multiple occasions, more serious side effects may occur. It is for these reasons that the dose and duration of systemic steroids should be minimized whenever possible. Some side effects can be decreased by taking systemic steroids every other day instead of daily, even if the total dose is the same. Many of the side effects are reversible if the steroids are stopped, while other side effects may be permanent.
Side effects of long-term steroid use includes:


Diabetes mellitus
Obesity
Acid reflux/GERD
Osteoporosis
Myopathy
Increase in certain types of infections
Cushing syndrome

stay away from drugs kids!!!

Systemic Steroids also known as corticosteroids (or simply “steroids”) are medications used to treat inflammation in the body. Corticosteroids are not even really related to anabolic steroids.

They are anti- inflammatory, I.E. Cortisone shot for tennis elbow. Whereas Anabolic Steroids are androgenic, completely unrelated.


You just ownd yourself.

Systemic steroids

Systemic steroids are also called corticosteroids, glucocorticoids or cortisones. They are synthetic derivatives of the natural steroid, cortisol, which is produced by the adrenal glands. They are called systemic if the steroids are taken by mouth or given by injection. Topical (cortico)steroids are applied directly to the skin. Inhaled steroids are breathed in.

Systemic steroids include prednisone, prednisolone, methylprednisolone, beclamethasone, betamethasone, dexamethasone, fludrocortisone, hydrocortisone and triamcinolone.

Systemic steroids work in the same way as natural cortisol, and are prescribed for a large number of serious diseases. Skin conditions treated with steroids include blistering diseases such as pemphigus and pemphigoid, and severe forms of dermat

I have no stake with this Pacquiao/PED thing, but I love when ******s confirmation bias gets refuted.

I've had acid reflux for ten years and I've had to go to the hospital a few times when it got so bad

damn dude first Manny gets weak from taking blood and so do you, now you both have acid reflux?
Seems you have a non steroidal excuse for everything.

I guess your hands, head and feet got bigger after you turned 30 also. Or you started doing 8 miles a day when before you could only do 5, and it was cause you started going to church more huh.... LOL

Millions of people worldwide suffer from acid reflux. Its a dietary issue. Not a steroid issue. Then again, maybe my fat 78yr old grandfather's acid reflux issue is do to his weekly steroid cycle! LOL.

[tennis-legend]

anger and wild mood swings are the most obvious side effects of steroid abuse

the mayweather family have a history of anger and wife beating

and drug problems

mayweathers obsession with pacmans "supposed" drug use is obviously his subconscience projecting onto his biggest rival and fear
