Predizone For Babies (Top voted first)

Updated

Is it ok to give a 16 month 1/4 of a 10 mg predizone? She woke up with a little bit of a hive looking rash. The next morning it was worse!

Hello, Jessica! How are you? Sorry about your daughter's rash.

No, please don't give her a prescription medication, unless her pediatrician specifically prescribed it for her.

Prednisone is potent steroid class medication that can cause some pretty serious side effects and complications, such as fluid retention and heart failure. Thus, it's not safe to try to guess at an appropriate dose for a chid, especially when you aren't sure what's caused the rash.

Have you called her doctor, yet?
