any other prednisone users here?
      #140789 - 02/23/04 12:50 AM

Anyone else use prednisone here? I've found it on only a couple sites because it's not one of the more popular meds. Problem is both are kind of pricey. So far I've found:

http://www.ourprescriptionsforless.com/products1.html
http://www.myrxforless.com

Any cheaper sources?

Yes, I use prednisone from U2rx. Do NOT order it from Healthy Life Meds--it is from Mexico, and it is a fake pill. I use it for asthma and arthritis, and another sorce is healthpluspharmacy.com--both are VERY low cost, and U2rx is fantastic for customer care--arrives in less than 2 weeks.Good luck, and I know that you will be satisfied. Both sites are under $30, and that includes shipping!

OH, yes, the double-edged sword known as Prednisone. What a nasty drug, but it can literally save your life when it's needed.

I order it from mastersmarketing.com. I also order Lomotil from them. Have been using them for years - extremely reliable - only drawback is it takes two weeks to receive my order.

Get this - $2.50 for #28 5 mgs. Yes, that is two dollars and 50 cents! Doesn't get any better than that...

The U2rx site doesn't seem to work right now. Couldn't even find Prednisone there, but healthpluspharmacy is the best deal I've seen with the frees shipping, I placed an order with them. So far I have two different orders coming since I **NEED** this a week ago...can't take any chances. THANKS!!!

Indeed, but Prednisone is life for me. I have severe skin conditions for which there is no other effective treatment. I can usually take a cycle which fixes me up perfect and then get by with a decent length "vacation" before I flare up again, so I'm not on the stuff permanently.

Mastersmarketing.com does have very good prices but they require doctor info Doctors are extremely hesitant to prescribe Prednisone on a regular basis, and it costs me $90 just to get the scrip anyways with no insurace...hence why I use OPs.

rx2world has the best deal on prednisone I've found.
Also, Masters.
Question for gl505 may I ask how you know the HLM's prednisone is fake? ( I read that to my dismay recently on one of DB'f Forum, and really wondered then as now about it). So, are you speaking from personal experience? heresay?
The truth is in the taste. I know; I use it; can't be fooled.
No medication has the after-taste (to put it mildly)
like predinisone - worse lingering , way beyond 'bitter'
taste I know of. Or the close contender --Zopiclona aka Zopiclone aka Limovan 7.5mg, etc etc - "European Ambien" is what I call it LOL, though there is a popular for-real generic "ambien" very popular in Europe, and elsewhere. I think that "European Ambien" (again, not real Ambien) LOL is candy compared to prednisone YUCK. No disrespect meant concerning Europe - my ancestry!! And I know that many of our best drugs are EU rip offs, especially as concerns many leading edge drugs in Germany now, and historically speaking. Viva Les Deutch LOL

Also ..gl..do you know if HLM's prednisone is a simple, small, round, white, scored pill, with no writing? There's a lot of that out there that is great (though looking at it you'd probably say nuh uh no way). Rx2world has that in unbelievable quantities, like 500 pills for 30 dollars, something really positively absurd like that
Note ...gl...I mean no disrespect, but I do 'just want to know' cuz I use prednisone , and, I like HLM. So I sorta need to know! I'm not questioning your integrity in the least, just accuracy. Hope that's okay and we can be friends.

Bettlenut
Cool good to hear from ya! I got mine from Masters in 4 days from delivery date with wonderful if not charming email convo with Ms. E. Heehe
Anyway I just wanted to say that the prednisone from Masters is very outstanding. I recommend it. At least once per quarter year I dose up on Prednisone, without which there would be no chance of an inkling of quality of life. If you truly need it a prescription is warranted. Beyond any shadow of doubt this is good advise. Take it or leave it
It comes in a dosepak/Medrol; and for a good reasons the 'typical use' involves sudden , rather high dosing, followed by tapering. Ya use a lot one day then taper down a pill or so till it's gone, something akin to how antibiotics are used in that there must be an end-goal, time beyond which you must quit.
How much you taper and how often can be debated. Docs will work with you on that in accordance w/ medical need. Good Docs anyway Ha Ha. That's the consensus of opinion amongst Doctors. Am I a doctor? Doesn't matter, I stayed at Holiday Day Inn last night LOL
Wonder why nobody asked about Dexamethasone, etc. There are steroid conversion programs available to help you figure out safe dosing regimes. I have one if anybody needs it I'll provide the URL. Post or PM

Hi Taters!

The truth is in the taste with Prenisone, that is for sure!! Nothing , I mean nothing has that "distinctive" taste and aftertaste.

Also, if you forget to take a little (rather ALOT) of food with it, you'd be better off dead - the stomach ache is horrendous .

And our FAVORITE side effect is the insomnia, of course.

Yep, I always seem to get myself in trouble by not going to the doctor soon enough, so I usually have to start out on a horrendously high dose and then taper every day from there.

Can you believe a pharmacist once told me that he had become addicted to Prednisone?!! :( He said he just loved the "energy" it gave him.) For Pete's sake, can you imagine a more DANGEROUS drug to become addicted to?!!

What I thought was REALLY weird was reading how Jerry Lewis went into REHAB to get off the prednisone. Now THAT was the wierdest thing I've EVER read. (but then again, I did read it in The Enquirer, so consider the source) But, really, rehab for prednisone???? I don't get it, do you?

mastertater, I apologize for not replying sooner--I do not come to this site every day lately {dealing with a Mom in an Alzheimers unit}---anyhow, after dealing with HLM for over a year for Soma, I ordered prednisone for asthma, and arthritis--After a year of sealed bottles, I received an open bottle stuffed with highly scented toilet tissue--white pills, no markings. It came from a "lab" in Mexico with I and another DBer {who got the SAME PILLS from the SAME LAB, but for a different med!!!} , well we both tried to contact the company on the bottle--came back " no such address". The pill did not taste, nor did it behave like real prednisone. Took it to my pharmacist, and he told me it was worthless--didn't know what was in it, but there was NO prednisone in it, and putting scented toilet tissue in with pills is dangerous also. HLM tried to tell me that it was a good generic,, but ALL of my orders from them have been generics, and all hafe been sealed, and all have been fine. Either HLM got cheated, or they knew, and allowed ME to get cheated. Doesn't matter-- I will not use them again. Healthplus came through with the real thing, and I did not have to put me life at risk. I simply don't trust HLM anymore; It seems as if their increased growth has made them sloppy, and I want no part of that. The other web site adds and drops products frequently, so you need to check often. They are really great too. Sorry for the delay, and I hope you have solved your search.

I have Crohn's Disease for which I have been taking Prnisone since 11/1987, along with small bowel resections and numberous fast-tracked FDA approvoed drugs that were ineffective. I have also been diagnosed with Cushings's Disease because of the lon-term usage of Prednisone . I HATE THE STUFF! I'v even been diagnosed with steriod rage because of it. I just keep trying to taper off and then get sick again. At least the VA has granted me 1005 disability, but I would advise people to stay away from Prednisone if there is an alternative course of treatment. It has kept me alive (the checks on that every 6 months).

My most recent order with HLM includes Prednisone.
I referred Fritz to your posts in this thread, and advised him that my use of Prednisone is for respiratory emergencies, meaning the wrong product or dose could be life threatening. I requested that he omit the product if there is ANY question.
FWIW, I got a surprisingly quick response stating:
"Good afternoon. Our Prednisone is indeed 20mg strength. I was not aware of the postings; I will go check them out. Thank you."

As noted, Pred is one med which is easily identifiable by taste. I will post feedback after I receive my order.

msaok, I have asthma, and it can get dangerous very quickly. I live in a very rural area, and wanted to have the prednisone on hand to literally save my life. What HLM sent me was "no more than a sugar pill" according to my pharmacist, and he said I would be playing with fire if I were to use it for an emergency. I have ordered from another overseas pharmacy--low price, SEALED bottle, and it is prednisone, not fake. As I said above, HLM denied that SOMEONE was lying--HLM or the supplier, and he would not replace the order[2 bottles] with another company, so I concluded that he did not want my business. He thought I was upset over getting a generic, but he missed the point---ALL of my orders from HLM had been generic, and I had no problems---until the prednisone, and it was very upsetting that Fritz just didn't care. Wouldn't replace, wouldn't refund. I went elsewhere. gl5505

Prednisone is a wonderfully powerful drug & a brilliant antinflammatory, but the emotional side affects can hit some people like a tornado.

If you have any sort of inclination toward depression, anxiety, paranoia - if you need to use a prozac/zoloft type medication, odds are that after a week or so you will be VERY prone to suffer violent mood swings. A dear friend with severe asthma and other respiratory ailments must take prednisone periodically, and at those times - let's just say that we're relieved she doesn't have access to firearms. On the other hand, at one time my throat was so inflamed I could scarcely swallow, and the prednisone was the only thing that cleared up the problem. Handle with care!

Hi masoak--I sent a PM to you re:prednisone.BTW, I took the prednisone that I bought elswhere to my pharmacist too, and he confirmed that it WAS the real thing---so same pharmacist, prednisone from two different places, and he said only one of them was legitimate. I guess what most upset me was that Fritz knew that I was not a new customer, and that I had never complained before, in fact was very satisfied with HLM, yet he dismissed my concerns as if he weren't interested in whether this customer had an honest complaint. So, unable to trust him again, I've moved on. Maybe he has finally changed his source for this drug--I hope so! Good luck. gl5505

You are correct about the side effects, but I never take it for more than a week, and begin tapering by the 3rd day. But it is a wonder drug for asthma and severe inflamation, that's for sure! gl5505

Hey Mike. I use prednesone from time to time. I have degenerative bone spurring and inflamation and it really aches and hurts pretty much nonstop. I take pain meds and it helps but when I get to where I want to just lose it, I take 40 mg prednesone a day for about 4 days and I have no pain at all. It is wonderful. But, a nasty med taken long term so only do it when I have had it.

My meds are extrememly inexpensive. My dog has been on them for years and my doctor told me to take my dog's cause it is exactly the same (and it is EXACT) and I can fill the dog's anytime. It's like a bottle for $8.39. LOL Anyway, just saw the thread and had to pipe in and share my "source" along with everyone else.

Regards!

Hi gl5505,

Sorry I did not receive your pm. Can't guess why.

Anyway, thanks for the heads up. I notified Fritz about your post and my concerns. I did receive the Prednisone I ordered, and he answered my email with reassurances. I was disappointed, however, he did not choose to post here with his explanation.(He did indicate to me he would be reading the relevant posts)

I have just started a course of the Pred, and will know today if it's not what it should be. So far, so good, though. It came in the factory sealed and labeled bottle. It's the orangish-colored pill I am used to seeing, and has the raunchy bitter taste I recognize as Pred.

Maybe there's some reasonable explanation for what happened to you(such as: tampering while in transit), but at the very least you deserved a better customer service response.
