wysolone 10mg(prednisolone)
« on: September 19, 2016, 06:52:14 AM »
Hi
Does wysolone 10mg(once every alternate day) needs tapering down the dose to withdraw? Hassan was prescribed 10mg wysolone for 2 months taken once every alternate day. Should I taper the dose to 5mg and then stop? His doc said its not necessary but patients who have been on steroids say it needs tapering down. Please help

Kind Regards
Maha

It should be tapered off and not stopped all at once. http://www.mayoclinic.org/prednisone-withdrawal/expert-answers/faq-20057923
