Some people have to stay on prednisone much longer than 2 weeks depending on the condition it has been prescribed for. It is a hard drug to be on and does tend to cause weight gain. You might have to decrease the amount of food you are eating and increase your activity level just to maintain the weight you are currently at. Discuss your concerns with your doctor. He/she may be able to offer some tips as well.
