Some advice please,I have food poisoning,sickness and diarrhoea,although the sickness seems to have cleared up! There is no way I can eat anything,I have some Omeprazole 20mg capsules,should I take one of these about half an hour before my prednisolone( 8mg,non e/c),also should I take any extra prednisolone? Any advice would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure I'd risk the extra tablet - a single dose of pred is unlikely to cause a problem but drink as much as you can (slowly) without upsetting your stomach again. As long as you keep the pred down for an hour, there should be no need for extra pred. Sick Day Rules and extra pred is more for longer lasting or severe illness. Not that I am dissing food poisoning - you can feel pretty rubbish for a while.
I expect you take Dioralyte Fluid Replacement Sachets. They cleared up my tummy bug. Hope you feel better soon. 🙏
