I, when a prectising Dentist and after retiring from active practice of dentistry, was prescribed and I used prednisone for several years in an attempt to obtain relief from physical pain. this pain was a result of some injuries which were received in my earlier life. This was very helpful, physically, and I am certain that my knowledge of the possible harmful effects of continuing to use this over a long period of time avoided an addiction problem.
