Guest guest Posted October 4, 2001 Report Share Posted October 4, 2001 .. He wants to give me metho starting out three times and week and going up to six times a week---and I nearly fainted! I have a pretty mild case of RP and recently just went up to 10 mg prednisone/day, and am now coming back down. I have never heard of anyone taking metho so frequently. Anyone have any ideas on this? I may try the Dapsone again but on a lower dose with frequent blood checks this time! I have never heard of anyone taking metho but once a week. Do you think he made a mistake? How long have you been on pred.? Has it always been a low dose? I would question your doctor on his plan. I hope this helps. Take care & let us know.
