Could Trump's dexamethasone treatment for covid give him 'roid rage?' Powerful steroid is linked to aggression, mood swings and confusion

President Trump is being treated for COVID-19 with dexamethasone, a potent steroid shown to reduce death risks and shorten recovery time

The drug is typically reserved for severely ill patients because clinical trials suggest that people with milder COVID-19 might fare worse after getting it

Drugs in its class of corticosteroids are 'well-known' to have psychiatric side effects

Mood swings,confusion, aggression and agitation are categorized as 'more common' side effects of the drug

However, they're considered a minimal risk when given in doses lower than 40mg per day

It's not clear how much dexamethasone Trump is getting, but clinical trials using it to treat COVID-29 only dosed patients with 6mg per day
