Hi,

You have not mentioned the reason for which you are taking these medications and in what dosage. It is the steroid which is the reason you are having these side effects. I believe decrease in the dose or gradually stopping may help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
