You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving chronic glucocorticoid therapy should be monitored for potentially diminished therapeutic response to growth hormone treatment.
