Has anyone found that the time released capsules are better than standard prednisone?

    I started with the ordinary coated pred and had a lot of trouble reducing. When I changed to Rayos I found them much easier to manage from a reduction point of view. I did have an enormous amount of side effects at the beginning too. I am not sure if they improved with Rayos or it was just time and a reduced dose.
