weight gain, weakness and loss of muscle mass and osteoporosis.

• After discontinuation of treatment, adrenal insufficiency may occur, which may lead to
adrenal cortical atrophy, with the possibility that the animal cannot cope properly.
to stressful situations. Therefore, efforts should be made to minimize
adrenal insufficiency problems after withdrawal of treatment.
• Systemically administered corticosteroids can cause polyuria, polydipsia, and
polyphagia, especially during the initial stages of treatment.
• Some corticosteroids can cause water and sodium retention and hypokalemia in
prolonged use.
• Systemic corticosteroids have caused calcium sedimentation on the skin (
cutaneous calcinosis ).

worsen if nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have also been administered, as well as in
animals with spinal trauma.
