A 40mg higher dose would be to hit any inflammation really hard and be sure it is enough. There is no need to titrate a pred dose up like you do with some drugs - so take what your doctor told you to. 5mg is a very low dose and won't deal effectively with inflammation as a start.
Not what you're looking for?
