When tapering off pred, slower is usually better. I came down 1 mg/month from 10 down to 3 mg/day. I've been at 3 mg/day for a month and will hold here for another 3 months while we see how I do with 2.5 mg less methotrexate.
you may want to consider holding at your current dosage until your body has fully adjusted, and then try another reduction.
