It has been a long time since I have needed to take Prednisone but my doctor prescribed them for me if I get into trouble and my lung function is getting worse. What is the best way to take 30 mg: a burst all at once in the morning or do you divide them up throughout the day?
thanks in advance for your input

Well, the best way to take it, from personal experience, is to spread it out through the day. When they come in 6 day packets, they start with 6, and reduce by one each day, until you have taken your last pill on the 6th day.

If your doctor has recommended 30 mg a day, then remember, when your condition gets better, slowly reduce the amount of Prednisone, for about a week, until you are down to about 5 mg.

The reason is that, if you stop suddenly, your body may react in a very bad way. The body quickly becomes addicted to steroids, and you will likely be in a lot of pain if you stop suddenly.

Hope this will be of help. Take care now, and take it easy on the steroids.
Sincerely,
Caring
