I would not use the pred without doctors directions. Pred and be very tricky. Try to get your pharmacy to get a four day advance on your refill from another pharmacy. Tell them if they find the pharmacy and arrange, you will be more than glad to pick up.

If that doesn't work, your neuro undoubtedly has Mestinon on hand. See if they would give you four days worth. And if they don't have enough - ask them to call hospital pharmacy and see if they have some.


In future, always always always keep at least two weeks supply on hand. What if you absolutely had to travel and didn't have enough pills?
