Again, thank you so much for the positive feedback regarding its effectiveness. Also, taking it with something sweet kills the taste of it if you don't exhale for a few seconds after downing it.
I've no idea why this extra step of precaution is so unheard of given how many of us are on oral cytox and how good its reputation seems to be (perhaps Sangye's DR Seo will render his opinion to her on the matter). Either way, this appears to be another question that many of our forum members might wish to raise during their next Dr. visit. Hope that this proves to be helpful to at least one of you (my whole point for bringing the subject to light herein). And, Sangye, I shall get me some more answers on the 90mg pred issue. As always, my sincere appreciation for your looking out for us in these issues - - you have this calling to go with your others, so please don't let up.
