I've been taking prednisone for quite a while for my rheumatoid arthritis.  It helps with the pain a lot, but after taking it for a period of time, you body may build an immunity to it.  Try taking aleve for a few weeks, then switch back to prednisone.  Aleves active ingredient is Naproxen.  It's an anti inflamatory that works well with any kind of joint or bone pain.  after that, switch back.  You won't want to increase your dose of prednisone without your doctors consent.  If I were you though, ask your doctor if there is anything else that you can take instead of prednisone.  As I said before, it works great for pain, but there are a lot of side affects that can be associated with it such as moonface, necrosis, and even diabetes.  \nP.S. Its not going to be easy to ween you off that stuff though.  You cant suddenly quit taking it.  If you do, you may experience flare ups with your pain.  Ask your doctor for information on how to get off it.

No, it is not true.  Cortisone is regulated by the government and is a prescription drug; they cannot put it in over the counter items.

They are different versions of penicillin. Amoxicillin is the drug of choice (DOC) for sinus infections, It doesn't work well at all against bone infections. If the infection is treated during the first 2-3 days, Pen VK is the DOC. After that, augmentin is DOC. \n\nYour oral surgeon may be concerned about a soft tissue infection that has gone on longer than 3 days.\n\nSorry Nightrain551 but Amoxicillin is NOT recommended for bone infections - it has very poor bone penetration.

Prednisolon is widely used in the treatment of COPD, asthma, emphyzema etc. It helps the patient's breathing especially during the course of a chest infection.\n\nI am speaking, both as a registered nurse and also as a relative. My mother died with COPD six years ago, i took care of her until she died. \n\nYou mention Mendrol, my mother was prescribed it but id didn't seem to agree with her, not as well as Prednisolon did. What i mean by that is that she didn't get over infections as quickly as she did on Prednisolon/\n\nYour mother should speak to  the doctor offering to increase her Mendrol, ask what would think about a course of Prednisolon. Her doctor may decide she is better off on Mendrol, in which case she could tell him that she asked for a second opinion.\n\nI don't know if you are in the UK or USA but should your mother ever feel that she was not getting the best tretment from her doctor, then Patients Charter states that she is entitled to have her views heard and switch doctor, if feeling that he would treat her beet.\n\nBest wishes
