Guest guest Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 hi jan, well........40mg/day is moderately hi. i say this with tongue in cheek tho because it also depends on duration. quick/hi doses of pred are kind of different than sustained treatment, i.e., 40mg over a period of time i would say is moderate to hi. if it was a quick one shot or short course dose (like 5 days), not that hi...prolly confusing, eh? i started at 60 when i had my worst bout of pg, ended up at 120mg/day...for a sustained dosage, extremely hi. had ALL of the nasty side effects, besides sweating profusely, constantly, and no sleep, had the blurred vision and couldn't drive either....amoung other things. i hope docs help you and you get relief soon. i feel for you and you are in my thoughts. jeff > > Jeff, Do you know if 40 mgs is a high dose...
