A member asked:

Is prednisone typical treatment for a stye? doc prescribed 60mg/day 5 days which seems overkill. also gave antibiotics which i expected.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not particularly: I never had occasion to use in over more than 3 decades in primary care. That said, I do not have your history or exam findings and am not informed of any additional issues at the visit. Sounds lie you need to communicate more with the treating doc.
