Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Never adjust your dosage without consulting them.
Take the tablets whole with a full glass of water. Avoid crushing or chewing them, as this can alter absorption.
The best time to take Prednisone is usually in the morning with food to minimize stomach upset. Your doctor may recommend a different schedule.
Maintain a consistent schedule. Take your dose at the same time each day to ensure consistent blood levels.
Keep your Prednisone tablets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Inform your doctor about any other medications you’re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, as interactions are possible.
Report any side effects, such as increased thirst, frequent urination, or weight gain, to your healthcare provider immediately.
Never abruptly stop taking Prednisone. Your doctor will gradually reduce your dosage to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
Store the medication out of reach of children and pets.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double up on doses.
