Hello my name is Tiffany so my question is I'm supposed to take my Prednisone In the morning and lunch and at supper time and at bedtime so I was wondering if it would be alright to do it every 3 hours?

Hello Tiffany. You won't get any medical advice here, just opinions based on our own experiences. Do you have polymyalgia rheumatica, because that's an unusual way to take prednisone for PMR, split into four doses a day. Also, 4 doses a day would mean you're already taking it every 3-4 hours or so. Was it your doctor who told you to do it that way?
