Prednisone pills
I've never seen the 2.5mg and 1mg prednisone pills.
All they have here is the 5mg pill, so when needed to taper slowly, the pills are halved and packed by the pharmacy.
My prednisone taper and increase is like a roller coaster ride. The highest was I think about 60mg. The tapered slowly down to 1 and a half pill, that's 7.5mg. My finger nails were too brittle to break the pills, so the pharmacists did it for me.
Let's see, 4th day on tapered prednisone, and yes, there are effects. A bit of nausea, eyes watery.
How is your eyesight at present? Is the Irubnit working?
