Kevzara Side Effects?

Posted by hopeinal @hopeinal, Jun 18 11:48am

I'm thinking of going off Prednisone and onto Kevzara. Having such bad side effects with Pred that I'm so wanting to stop taking it. The skin on my forearms and tops of my hands is paper thin and I'm covered in horrible blackish deep purple blotches, skin tears and bruises constantly. My hair is falling out. My eyes look like I have pinkeye. Plus I'm weak as a kitten.

So I'm wondering what sort of side effects those of you on Kevzara are having, if any?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) Support Group.

Are you taking folic acid to prevent hair loss ? I’ve been prescribed 1 mg/day to prevent hair loss while on methotrexate 15 mg/weekly….works for me
