Hi Margo, Both the viles are marked Prednisolone so I believe they mismarked this and put the wrong pill in there(Prednisone). I didn¹t realize that I HAD been giving her Prednisolone until right this moment. I am not sure what to do. She is due now for the pill but I feel like I should skip this dose and get to the vet first thing in the morning to get the other. Do you agree? Will it hurt her to miss a dose?

What you had before was likely predniSOLONE. Prednisolone s considered by many to be better for cats, because predniSONE must be proceesed in the liver before it is the useable form predniSOLONE Sorry.... > -----Original Message----- > From: Sherri Godschalk > Sent: Sep 21, 2016 8:23 PM > To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org > Subject: [Felvtalk] Just a quick question about Prednisone > > Good evening all.
