Side effects of entocort - what to do

[Luthien]

So my doctor prescribed 9mg entocort after seeing several strictures in my small bowel. They said to take it with food so I don't feel nauseous. Anyway I've taken it a couple days and it's made my stomach (right below/in between my ribs) super bloated. Now today I threw up the meds a few hours after I took them.

Is this normal? Should I keep taking it or stop? I really hate feeling even sicker then normal from something that is supposed to help me...

Hmm I have felt fine when taking Entocort but after a while my bones hurt and I got tired but it sounds like you are having a much more acute reaction. Have you mentioned this to your doctor?

I did call me doctor. I also broke out in some sort of rash. They decided to stop the entocort and put me on prednisone, I'll start it tomorrow morning.
