Hey Tamtam!! I took 20mg to start with and reduced to 10mg. You are best to take them in the morning as they can cause insomnia!! Is this you gearing up to start?xx

Absolutely!! I'm just waiting on AF!! Hopefully last chance saloon is kind to us both!!🤞🏻😘xxx

Hi Tamtam1.

I took prednisone 5mg x 2 for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy ( raised NK cells) I took mine in the morning after my breakfast. As Cinderella5 says they can cause insomnia.

I had no ill side effects & I’m sure it helped to keep my baby safer.

Wishing you the best with your cycle, got everything crossed for you ❤️xoxo

Hi Tamtam 1, I took them in morning and afternoon, but never evening as they can cause insomnia. What does your dr say?

in reply toSuz92

Until next week just wanting to be prepared x

By the sounds of it, I’m the only one that was told to take them morning and afternoon lol. All at once in the morning seems the norm. They made me so hungry! Well one of the medications I was on seemed to make me hungry and I’m assuming it was them lol. Hope all goes well next week xx

Hi Tamtam,I've just started taking them this week, 20mg and all 4 tablets to be taken in the morning. I was also prescribed Omeprazole to help my stomach whilst on steroids and yep I feel so hungry which is a nightmare because I'm trying to lose weight!! Xx

Hello Hun! I took mine all at once in the morning but I took them for about 16 weeks. I had to wean myself off them. X

Hi, I took them all at once in the morning with my breakfast as I can upset your stomach and give you insomnia. I hope this helps. Good luck with your treatment 🤞🤞🤞🤞💖
