I disagree with 2 statements concerning Prednisone dosage:
-the maximum dosage for a treatment of at least several weeks should be 1mg/kg/day, 1.5 to 2 is far too high...
-The starting dose should be low and increased progressively every couple of days in the absence of adverse reactions (that was my case with 5 mg/day and I was lucky to be an in-patient at that time) until the dosage of 1mg/kg/day is reached.
