Key points

  • Stress dosing is needed when patients on longer-term methylprednisolone therapy face unusual physical stress, because dosage should increase before, during and after the stressful period.
  • For less severe conditions where corticosteroid treatment is indicated, alternate-day therapy may be used to reduce the body’s exposure.
