I think I did ask my vet about that and she said something about the
way the pred works is better than a natural steriod for now. And they
are getting a very miniscual dose 1/4ccs once a week. Even at their
highest dose it was only 5ccs a day for 4 weeks, then we lowered it to
2ccs everyday for 4 weeks, then to 1 ccs daily for 4 weeks and then
lowered it again to 1/2ccs daily for 4 weeks and then went to 1/2ccs
every 3 days for 4 weeks, and now we're at 1/2ccs once a week (just
started that this week) and if their symptoms stay good we'll probably
stay there until I get them completely switched to homemade and then get
them retested. So they have been on it for quite a while. I watch them
very closely :)
