My son, A.J. woke up this morning with a pimple like rash from his waist up. Looks like horrible acne. The only thing that we did different is he changed from 30 mg of Predisone twice a day, to 60 mg once a day. I have a call in to his doctor but no call back yet. Is this normal?

When I was taking 60 mg of pred. I also broke out in a pimple like rash, but all over my chest, neck and chin. It went away as I decreased pred.

That's where his is. Did you find anything that gave relief? Did it itch?

No, mine did not itch. It was more of just an annoyance. I washed a lot with acne soaps, hoping it would go away, but that really did nothing. sorry.

Why the change from 30 (twice daily) to 60?
