Thanks, I got 1mg to taper to 15, where I am now, will need many more as we go. Like why no refills? Run out of ones, and as I cut corners off pills I mix the ones and 5s I cut and now dont know how many mg I have left over. Grrr.

Your doctor or rheumatologist should refill your prescriptions if you ask. Mine gave me a 3 month supply of each 2.5 and 1 mg tablets along with the 5 mg tablets. I would ask them and let them know it's so you can taper at a lower dosage.
