Prednisone and/or prednisolone

Has anyone been taking prednisolone and changed to prednisone? If so, what was the regimen to make the change? Also, was there a noticeable difference in direct effects or side effects?

Do you mind telling me what your current dosage of prednisone is? My medrol is 8mg - equivalent to 10mg prednisone.

Not a problem. For information, if anyone is interested, I'm active with some stiffness but hardly any pain unless I really do heavy lifting or such.

I'm in US, so medrol was apparently an unusual choice.

That's interesting. All I know is that the liver doesn't have to convert anything with the Prednisolone. The job's been done.
