Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, medrol is having a lot of side effects.
Medrol is having methylprednisolone and it is corticosteroid in nature.
It can cause weight gain as a side effect.
Along with weight gain, it can cause diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, kidney damage, lipodystrophy, skin rashes etc.
So better not to take medrol otherwise it will cause above mentioned serious side effects.
Better to try natural weight gain. So do aerobic exercise like running, cycling, swimming etc. Take high protein diet like pulses, eggs, milk products, protein powder etc.
Don't worry, you will gain weight.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
