the dose of prednisone is based on the severity of your asthma other medications that you may be taking and your body weight. essential things that any medical provider needs to know. unfortunately i cannot blindly treat your asthma over the internet so i strongly suggest that you consult your medical provider. the person who knows you your medical history your other medications your weight etc. for a patient-specific order. basically it is not safe for you to take potent steroids without a consultation with your treating medical provider.
