Lately I have been getting these hot flashes, and very agitated all the time. I can feel my adrenaline going and I can't turn it off. I have been on 9mg a day for 7 months now haven't been able to taper off. I was wandering if it's possible that I am starting premenopause or if this is just from the medicine

I think it is Entocort. Entocort gets my adrenaline going and sometimes I feel very Speedy.
I only take one a day, and when I get better will reduce to one every other day. Three a day is a lot for 7 months. If you can't get your D under control, then you are eating something that you should'nt. Rethink your diet and try to scale back on Entocort. You should be able to get by on one a day now.

Good luck,
karen

I think it is the Entocort. I was told I was acting agitated by others. Also, I hot flashes frequently. That has stopped since discontinuing Entocort.

I've never felt like I had increased agitation since I've been on Entocort. When I was on Prednisone, I felt agitated, couldn't sleep, and was jumpy. I have none of that with Entocort.
