Do you mean .5ml which is half of a 1ml syringe? My IBD cat gets .5 of prednisolone once a day and is doing very well on it. It does affect a cats immune system which is why it works well with inflamatory problems like IBD (Inflamatory Bowel Disease), but I never heard of using steroids for FelV positive cats, since their immune systems are already compromised. I will be very interested in hearing about this. Perhaps I missed some of your posts.
