The Prednisone pharmacist attended a PMR/GCA conference at Harvard.

Dr Megan seems to be taking an interest in PMR/GCA. For anyone that is interested, she has posted several recent videos about what she learned at the conference. Her information is excellent. Don't feel obligated to purchase her vitamins. She just seems passionate about helping Prednisone warriors and the information she shares is free,

This link will direct you to her YouTube videos. https://www.youtube.com/@PrednisonePharmacist

I have purchased her vitamins and they have greatly helped my labs readings and also sleeping at night. I purchased them when I had PMR and now that I have GLA I am purchasing them again.

I haven't ever purchased her vitamins but I think there is a need for a formulation for people taking Prednisone. There are formulations for everything else so why not for people taking Prednisone?

I didn't learn about Dr. Megan until after I was off Prednisone. I had so many problems when I was on Prednisone. Different specialists would tell me to take a vitamin. Rheumatologists like vitamin D. Neurologists like vitamin B12. Other specialists recommended other vitamins for other conditions when I took prednisone.

I tried to appease everyone and said I would take a multivitamin rather than take so many individual vitamins.

What is GLA or did you mean GCA?
