I had what I though was a serious sinus infection for 5 days before starting this drug. My doctor decided that I probably had very inflamed sinuses rather than an infection and opted to try this steroid instead of antibiotics. It took less than a day to start getting relief and by the second day my swelling had disappeared. I would absolutely take this again for any kind of inflammation symptoms....

The dosage and use of the dispensing packet are great. The first day taking 6 pills and the night sweats that followed was a bummer. After 3 days on the medicine the metalic taste left in my mouth all day long is almost unbearable. The only positive about the drug is its despensing packet is fool proof. Other than that it has to be some ones idea of a cruel joke.

The pain in my shoulder, hip, and spine completely disappeared by the third day on the Medrol Pak. I only wish I could use it more often, because the symptoms reappear in a few weeks

This medicine worked great. I couldn't use it for long though, because I'm only 16 and it is a steriod. But overall, I felt little or no pain in my shoulders.

This medication was hard to keep up with. Remembering to take all the doses at the right time. Also, if left in mouth to long it leaves a bad after taste. It did work though!! :]
