Hello, my now 30lbs puppy has been on Prednisone for about 4 weeks for puppy strangles. It was 20 mg per day but at his appointment yesterday the taper was started, and the dose was bumped up to 30mg as he has grown since initial dosing. We were told to now start giving 30mg every other day for three more weeks and then we can stop. This does not seem like much of a taper to me? Any thoughts as to if the dose or frequency should further be reduced over the next 3 weeks? Thanks!
My male cat has been prescribed antibotics and prednsione for broncitis. He is 16 lbs, is 5 mg of predisone a small dose?

Can I get prednisone for my dog without taking him to the vet
Is methylprednisolone from CADISTA (pills for humans) safe for 12 yo cat?
Gave my dog who weighs between 8 and 10 lbs 2.5 mg of prednisone, the prescription is old and I can't see if it says to give her 2.5 twice daily for inflamed joint pain and arthritis pain. I did give her a regular dose this morning and it helped but I can tell she is in pain again tonight, don't know if I should give it to her every 12 hours or every 24 hours. The vet we use to go to is no longer there and no other vet will tell me. I don't have the money for a vet visit Help !!
Hi. I am giving my dog 33 kg. weight, 60 mg/day (from this past Monday, ie 4 days) of Prednisone due to his IBD plasmocyte lymphoplasmic moderate level. The point is that he is very lethargic and weak and he is not tolerating Pred. well and I would like to reduce the dose. What would be the plan of action? I know it's done gradually but I'd like you to tell me the dosage. Thank you
Vet prescribed Prednisone 5gm tablet for cats. Do I pill him or can I grind it into food? Also for my other cat vet prescribed Albuertol Sulfate syrup 2mg for "as needed" can you tell me what is that used for and is it just used for coughing spells.
Our dog has been taking Prednisone for an allergic reaction that she occasionally has. She winds up needing it about once every three months we have been having to go to the vet and pay for an appointment and also pay for the medication each time. Is it possible to get it here cheaper?
Hello, My cat Bugger has squamous cell carcinoma. He weighs 7 lbs. Can you please tell me which dose of Prednisolone would be best for him daily? He is getting 2 1/2 mg. now but I am hoping 5 mg. daily would be more helpful. He does not have a vet now . The one he had misdiagnosed him twice. We can't go to anyone else. Please advise. Thank you. Linda

My dog has been on prednisone for three weeks, tapering down now to half a pill every other day, she has a heart murmur and Allergies at age 15 on steroids because of pain inflammation due to jaw issue, can I stop prednisone, weight gain worries me, cause of her heart.
CBC showed low red blood cell count & VERY low white blood count. Vet prescribed 5mg Prednisone every 12 hrs 2nd CBC, 1 wk later showed normal red & high white blood counts. Continued Prednisone at 3/4 tablet every 12 hrs for 3 weeks. This sounds excessive to me, what do you think. Can damage occur with continued use of Prednisone? No diarrhea, No vomitting, No fever, Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jan
