Unusal Behavior After Taking Prednisone?

Has anyone experienced severe mood swings from their child being on Prednisone? My 4 year old daughter had the croup virus and her doctor put her on prednisone for one week... since then, she has had some of the WORST melt downs. I have also noticed that when she gets really tired, she clenches her fists- almost like a twitch. All of this started after she started taking the medicine- has anyone else noticed unusual behavior from their children after being on this medication?
