Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hi Sierra, Im fairly certain Prednisone is actually a major cause of water retention, so I think it must be something else making you loose the water weight. Whatever it is, good for you! --- snowdrift52003 <snowdrift52003@...> wrote: > I'm going through a med change now, and it's clear > to me that I've lost > water weight.

Tummy bloating is gone and my face looks slimmer. Could this be from going off an NSAID or could it be from adding Prednisone? (Does Pred. have diuretic properties? My mouth is drier lately.) I'm curious... Sierra Its definately not the prednisone. Pred actually causes water retention... Anyways glad is gone!

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 I did some research and am certain the water retention I had was from the Celebrex. NSAIDs can cause it.
