   Prednisone 'Taper' (Asthma board)

15th March 2008
Thanks Tom,

Its my first time on Prednisone (as an adult). I have had bronchitis for a week and it has made my asthma 'flare'. My Dr. prescribed 40mg for 3 days, 20 mg for 3 days and then 10mg for 3 days.

I am also just finsihed a Z-Pack, and am taking Musinex Q4 hrs and Ventolin HFA Q4 to 6 hrs. And LOTS of Pepcid for the reflux.

Do you know how long it should take to start to feel some relief - and to not have to use the rescue as much?

Since this is my first time - I just was trying to clarify some things. Thanks a lot.

Hope you are feeling well :)
