I believe @tuckerp was taking dexamethasone for PMR. He might share his experience with it. Dexamethasone is stronger than Prednisone and has a longer half life. I know it is used a lot in a hospital setting. Decadron is one of the bland names that I'm familiar with. I have administered it to neurosurgery patients but never used it myself.

Yes that's right, he was. Was hoping not to fill this thread about splitting prednisone doses with dexamethasone conversations, but it's not my call.
