Steroid help?


My doctor gave me steroids for otitis media with effusion......
he gave me this packet ... on day 1 i was supposed to take 6 tablets (5mgs each)..but he gave me them at night so i could only take four... now it is day 2.. and i dont want to INCREASE them so i took 3 so far.

Im scared about this.. should i take 4.. then 3 tomorrow 2 the next day and 1 the last day?!
or should i take 3 today 2 tomorrow and 1 the next day

if you're supposed to take 6 a day, do just that. Take another 3 today, and 6 tomorrow, continuing over the next week or so or until you've used the whole packet.
Your Dr. wouldnt prescribe something thats going to harm you, so just trust him and take the tablets as directed.
