Re: Has anyone taken the six day course of methylprednisolone?

Hi Sharon,

I have taken the short course of steroids but they did not do a thing for me!

Everyone is different though so I am hoping this will work for you.

I have taken the 6 day course of steroids and the don't work for me

I now take 6 for 4 days and taper down from there 1 a day every 4

days and that seems to work for me
