My Dr. wanted me to get 2 prednisone tablets in today, so I took one at 5pm and one at 10pm. Is that ok and is that far enough apart?

Ideally, they should be taken about 12 hours apart.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, fluid retention, and acne.

Are you on any other medications? Has there been any change?
