    Default Taking prednisone at different time

    I take prednisone after my breakfast in the morning, sometimes at 8 am, sometimes at 9 am, sometimes at 10 am. (depends on when I wake up) Sometimes I drink it early in the morning and go back to bed..
    Is it very important to take it at exactly the same time? When do you take yours?

    I take mine anytime from around 8:00 to 10:30 and it seems to make little difference. However, if I forget to take it (a very rare event), I start to feel unwell in the afternoon.

    Between 8 and 9 am, this is the regime they started when I was in the renal ward and I have just kept on with it.

    Hi Katarzena ,

    I work day & night shifts so take mine at either 5am or around 11am when I wake up after the night shifts. Don't seem to have any problems with this.

    Oh I see it's about the same for all of us. I thought it might be strictly important to take it at the same time. Okay then.

    I try to take mine at 9.30 every morning but have sometimes forgotten and taken it later in the day. I asked the Rhuemy about this and she said if I forget its okay to take it later in the day.
