How long do the side effects of prednisone last?
My child has been off prednisone for a week and is moody, angry, and easily annoyed. • A: The effects of predni sone should wear off seven days after the last dose. Every person metabolizes medication differently, so it is hard to give a definitive answer, but he should not be experiencing that much trouble if he took the medication for a short period of time (five days or so). If the trouble continues, you should have a discussion with his physician.
