BettyAnne is SO RIGHT !

My husband is very ill and on prednizone - it has awful side effects and they usually advise you to administer it in "Spurts" ...but NOT TO JUST stop taking it - You have to gradually step down in dosage as it can cause convulstions and shock if stopped abruptly.

Please talk to your vet about how to wean him off these drugs - they're a wonder drug... but have lots of bad side effects ...and I don't know about the reactions on Dogs - but I would be very careful with this and ask your doctor FIRST how to stop them......

Poor baby - I hope they've helped him and I'm sorry he's going thru so much
