Hi,
I was diagnosed with GCA & PMR in November 2018. I was put on 60mg prednisolone along with AA, lanzoprazole,& Adcal . I am now down to 2.5mg prednisolone & doing ok apart from tiredness occasionally . I recently went for a dental check up & need a tooth stump removing which might entail cutting the gum. The dentist made the comment that as I’m on AA, the healing process may take longer. My question is a) can I just stop taking AA, & b) if I do, how long before it is out of my system? (When I said I’d stop taking it before the extraction, the dentist said it would still be in my system)
Thanks all in advance.
