DD has just been prescribed 3 days of 20mg prednisilone tablets for a severe recurring wheezy chest along with amoxicillin and inhalers.
Picked up the tablets from pharmacy but realised when we got home that there are no instructions/leaflet in the box. They're big tablets so I'm assuming I dissolve them? Does anyone know if there is a min/max amount of water to dissolve them in? Presume I can dissolve them in weak juice to take away any yucky taste?
Also she is just getting over chicken pox - somewhere in my distant memory is there something to do with CP and steroids?
Waiting for call back from doctor but would like to get a dose in asap as she's really quite poorly if anyone knows?
