    Acute onset psychosis following steroid replacement in Sheehan's syndrome

    Acta Endo (Buc) 2010 6(4): 533-538 doi: 10.4183/aeb.2010.533

    Abstract
    Psychosis following steroid replacement in Sheehan's syndrome is rarely encountered. We present the clinical course of two patients who developed severe psychosis after starting them on low dose prednisolone. Psychosis subsided after either stopping or decreasing the dose together with use of antipsychotic medications. Glucocorticoids restarted a week later in low doses were well tolerated. Both the patients were reviewed after three months and were psychosis free.
