Prednisone and Night Sweats

Posted at 5:30 PM on Jul 25, 2008 by joanieanne, #6889
Have you ever heard of Prednisone controlling night sweats? I'm on my 3rd round of prednisone for pneumonia and asthma. And in between courses of prednisone I'll start gradually with night sweats and then each night they'll get worse. I start the prednisone and gradually they will get less and less each night. Is this weird

I am on prednisone and I suffer from night sweats occassionally, but it could also be related to my autoimmune disorder. I had pneumonia early this year and I had night sweats every single night. I would sweat though my pajamas at least once per night. If night sweats are related to inflamation then it would make sense that prednisone would help with that.
