My hair thinned out a lot after taking prednisone for about 6 months. I took 25 mg for 2 weeks and then reduced. Its been 4 months since I stopped the prednisone and my hair has almost grown back. I still have a sort of bald spot and I hope this will grow. There are a lot of side effects with prednisone and this is why some people call the drug, the devils drug.
