A member asked:
Hi, my dermatologist prescribed me prednisone 10 milligrams due to pemphigus foliaceus. it says on the bottle that i have to take two tablets by mouth every other day, what does that exactly mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Call dermatologist: Taking 20 mg on alternate days may lower side effects from prednisone. It would be prudent to contact your doctor for clarification.
