Does Prednisone Affect Ostomy Output Consistency?

This topic is about someone who started taking Methylprednisolone, a type of corticosteroid, to help with allergies. They noticed that their ostomy output has become more liquid and are wondering if the medication could be the cause.

Here are some insights and advice shared by others:

- One person mentioned that corticosteroids like prednisone and methylprednisolone can make the skin bruise more easily. They suggest discussing the change in ostomy output with a surgeon or the doctor who prescribed the medication to ensure there are no underlying issues.

- Another person shared that they have not experienced any changes in their ostomy output consistency while taking steroids, indicating that people may react differently to these medications.
