Follow the Schedule
Prednisolone directions may change over the course of treatment. Follow the current veterinary label and do not stop or alter the schedule unless the veterinarian gives that direction.
Prescriber-led preparation
Compounding is used when the prescription needs something different from a ready-made product.
Prednisolone suspension is compounded when a veterinarian prescribes a liquid form for a dog or cat and a commercial product does not fit the plan.
