Hi Fitzie,

Were you using the prednisone tabs or injections???

Hi Kate

We had blue tablets. We called them his little blue pep pills. I don't
know if they were labelled as prednisone. The vet just said they were
cortizone tablets. They were the only tablets our dog took without us
having to disguise them.

How's your dog going?

Cheers

Fitzie


Hi Fitzie,
Yes the little blue tabs are the prdenisone.
He is improving slightly each day, even though we have halved the
dosage now and hope to cut it back even further soon. They certinly do
the job, although we still cannot lose sight of the fact that the
problem is still undiagnosed, so therefore he is still not being
treated for the ailment. Hoewever his quality of life is so much
improved.
Cheers,
Kate
