Guest guest Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
