Why are you getting: these medicines? Prednisone 30 mg is fine at one time. Good luck and thanks for trusting in HealthTap.

Type of infection?: This type of treatment is usually used for chronic sinusitis . Side effects is related to the duration of Prednisone. If used for less than a week, you are likely ok although you may have trouble falling asleep with 30 mg daily. I do not use prednisone for acute sinusitis.
