KayeBaby,

I do not know much about prednesone except that it is used for many severe medical conditions. I also know that stopping the drug without a planned discontinuation schedual supervised by a doctor,as told to me by a friend of mine, can have severe ,and maybe life-threatening, consequences. Also, based upon a friend of mine telling me when he had to take it, that it can cause depression.
I would advise that you discuss this with your treating doctor as to if there is an alternative to taking it, if you are experiancing psych problems that you would like stopped, and that your discontinuation be done with medical intervention.
