I'm pretty sure the bad taste is intentional so you won't take any more of it
than you absolutely have to.

Glad she’s on the mend, Ann! Prednisone is nasty, bitter-tasting stuff, very
difficult to mask. Too bad there aren’t 2.5mg tablets!

I'm glad to hear she's doing better. I hope the "forever" for the weekly
1/2 pills is a long, long time.

Now that she is much better and has gained back some weight I feel I can
share this mini vid I took before I took her to get an Ultra Sound two
weeks ago. She had to do without any food after midnight the night before
this was shot and she was NOT pleased.. as she let me know here.. She had
had a concerning pattern of weight loss recently , vet visit a couple of
months ago indicated some kind of IBD - she got steroids and B vitamin
shot and improved a bit then declined again.. so the Ultra Sound proved
necessary.. she came home with pills to take 1/2 of twice a day for two
weeks then once a week "forever" It took some creativity to get the pill
into her - the solution after some experimenting turned out to be burying
the tiny thing in a small wad of cheddar cheese - actually, English
Double Glouster . she gets that into her tummy quickly and therefore is
spared the bitter taste of the pill (mashing up the pill in her food was
NOT a good solution "fool me once... ") the pills are Prednisolone . 5mg
pills cut in half. I didn't want to tell people anything aobut her
trials until I was able to say she is responding nicely to the meds and
is up to many of her old naughty tricks , is displaying good bathroom
behaviour and hasn't barfed at all in two weeks. so here is the short
vid I took early in the morning of Sept 22 before we went to the vet..
video verite - took with my darkside little camera - no editing.
