It really depends why it has been prescribed for you! Are you suffering with any side effects? Usually steroids are prescribed because they are the only drug that will improve or treat a condition . Stopping prednisolone suddenly is a bad idea. It should be done gradually with medical supervision. Are you on a long term course of it for life or is it a temporary treatment?

AnswerLook in the phonebook or other periodicals for a NATUROPATHIC Doctor Who usesHOMEOPATHY. That's the only suggestion I can make, because PREDNISONE is an odd,strong, UNIQUE, effective, sometimes problematic medication (bad side effects).Many people do not believe in Homopathic Remedies, but in your case you have not much to lose. <> Follow doctors orders and stay on prednisoneuntil you find a Homopathic doctor, then tell your doctor you would like to tryit, and he will wean you off of prednisone on a CERTAIN schedule, slowly ( Thatis after he spends 30 minutes telling you Homopathy is worthless. ) But it's worth a try, it won't kill you, and you can always go back to prednisone!!There really isn't anything that comes to mind to equal prednisone.

What is the correct Prednisone dosage for dogs and cats?

5 mg is a typical (but not a "right") dose. There is no agreed-upon "good" dose. 5 mg seems high because, that's also a typical human dosage. If you use this drug, be sure to taper it off in the last few days. Decrease the strength the cat takes, as well as the duration time between usage. This drug needs to be eased out of a cat's diet. Not suddenly pulled out. By the Prednisolone, is slightly better for cats than Prednisone, despite the similarities. Some cats cannot metabolize Prednisone in a way that is as good as they would with Prednisolone. (Prednisone breaks down into Prednisolone in the body).
