Hello everyone.

Can a change of dose usually cause weight loss? I usually take 4puffs of my Symbicort 2 in the morning and 2 at night, and when I got sick in April with bronchitis. My pulmo doctor told me to puffs 1 in the morning and 1 at night.

Since then, I feel like i'm losing alot of fats around my face, but my weight is still the same, and also, i am also on a calorie deficit, so that might be also the factor.

But still, can a change of dose can really make changes in your body?

Steroids can make you gain weight, including around the face. So a reduction in dosage may make you lose weight around the face. They say steroids can give you a moon face.

If you are not losing weight overall maybe you are being more active and adding muscle.

I feel my body is shrinking, in terms of cloth sizes, but my weight remains the same, and it might really because of calorie deficit. thank you for replying.
