    Snippet: Corticosteroids have several widely documented adverse effects. However, there is no systematic study evaluating the frequency and associations of corticosteroid-induced mania. We report a case of corticosteroid-induced mania in a patient that previously tolerated higher doses of steroid therapy without neuropsychiatric symptoms.
