Guest guest Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 Hi Val, June here from Scotland. Been jogging along not too badly on Isocort since 16th December, now taking 8 tabs daily along with my 3 grains Armour...but to give you a bit of background on this new development.... I have been suffering recurrent chest infection since end of January and have taken 2 courses antibiotics prescribed by GP However, infection does not seem to have lifted and GP has now ordered a chest x-ray, a lung function test, more antibiotics and - this is what I need advice on please - Prednisolone. The schedule for prednisolone is as follows. I have also put in what I normally take of Isocort. As my GP does not know I take Isocort, how will I factor in the Isocort, once I have reduced down the Prednisolone - any advice would be greatly appreciated. I would like to start the Prednisolone tomorrow. Predisolone Total mg Isocort tabs approx 2.5mg cortisol Total Cortisol /Predisolone Isocort Today 8 20 mg Day 1 8 40 0 40 mg Day 2 7 35 0 35 mg Day 3 6 30 0 30 mg Day 4 5 25 0 25 mg Day 5 4 20 0 20 mg Day 6 3 15 15 mg Day 7 2 10 Day 8 1 5 Regards June x Quote
