Have you ever tried taking a small dose of Prednisone in the evening?

Sometimes 1 mg is enough of an evening dose to get you through the night without the 3 a.m. pain. I'm not giving you medical advice but spitting your dose so you take 2 mg in the morning and 1 mg in the evening has worked for me and other people. Some doctors don't recommend a split dose but it worked for me. Maybe ask your doctor to see what they think.

If you don't have 1 mg tablets maybe your doctor would write a new prescription for you.
