I have been prescribed prednisone for a week to address gout (an awfully painful condition). Have never taken it and never had gout before this week. I am currently on oral and rectal mesalamine. Forgot to ask the doctor whether I can take the pred and the mesalamine together. I know there are folks on here with a lot of pred experience. I will certainly still check with the doctor, but wanted to know other’s experience. Also, should I have concerns about side effects with such limited use? Starting off with 40mg for 3 days then tapering down to 20mg for the remaining three days. Thanks
