A member asked:
As prescribed by the dermatologist for my spreading vitiligo, i am taking 30 mg prednisone twice a week, please advise is it safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safety: Prednisone is OK and vitiligo should get better as you use the prednisone. Over time your prednisone should be unnecessary.
