Hello, Tiffany! How are you?

Yes and it is a typical way for this medication to be prescribed, in order to give you a high dose to treat the relevant condition.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this steroid as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, acne, nervousness and insomnia.

Is there anything else I can help with?
