Hi are you taking calcium tablets with your steroids ? It's part of the course to take them with steroids, it wasn't when I was taking them but years later I had brittle teeth and under threat of having a full shoulder replacement. You shouldn't be taking them long term anyway and 75mg is a large dose to taking ??? Doubt azaphiapine is causing your problem I assume you have regular bloods done ?
