prednisone taper - SaySally


Posted: Dec 13, 2011

Dr. says prednisone 40 mg p.o. daily for 3 days then 20 mg p.o. daily for 3 days and then 10 mg p.o. daily for 3 days.  However, sometimes I am hearing 2 days, not 3.  Which is more likely in this case?  Thanks.

Number of days,SM - anon

Sorry to say, there is no "usual" in this case. If you cannot make out the number clearly, you should put a blank per your account specifics.

AGGHH!  I cannot tell if the doctor is stating prednisone 15 or 50 mg four times a day?  Any ideas?  I have googled and I can find prednisone in both dosages.  ...
