Steroids: Doctors

If long-term steroids are suddenly stopped, withdrawal effects can occur, so it is very important to take the prescribed dose at the times recommended by your doctor. When the steroid treatment is over, the dose is gradually reduced. Your doctor will advise you on this.
Injecting steroids into one or two local areas of inflammation allows doctors to deliver a high dose of medication directly to the problem area. When doctors give steroids by mouth or intravenously, they cannot be sure an adequate amount of the steroid will eventually reach the problem area.
