    Default Excessive sweating

    Had anyone experienced excessive sweating taking MTX or prednisone. My daughter has been experiencing this since she started her meds.

    Aw, stow it, Don. With all this pred, we may have to fist fight. "Da tractors". What a load to pull.

    Yes, It must be the pred. I'm on Cytoxan and Pred. It's yucky.

    Absolutely! I've understood it's a side effect of the prednisone. I get them at random times, but mostly nights. They have lessened as the dosage has been tapering. Not much fun, but like menopause so I'm used to them! Lol!

    Yep! It's the pred. A lovely side effect for us women. Not that men should sweat, but ladies generally prefer not to.

    It's the pred. When I was on the high doses initially I used to drench 6 t-shirts a night. I mean soaking wet, as if I'd fallen in a river.
