In order to prevent some glucocorticoid-induced adverse events, adjuvant measures are often associated with prescription of long-term (≥3 months) systemic glucocorticoid therapy. The main objective of this study was to study the association between prescription of these measures and the medical specialty of the prescriber. ⋯ Adjuvant measures to long-term glucocorticoid therapy are heterogeneously prescribed. The prescriptions depend largely on the medical specialty of the prescribing physician.
