Re: [Felvtalk] Prednisone
Zander was originally on prednisone and Doxycycline, when I added the Winstrol, and the trio worked well so I didn’t touch anything (except to up the Winstrol dose at the start of his treatment). However, I was subsequently told by a senior veterinary researcher, that the prednisone was a good addition because it would help to protect the liver from the effect of the Winstrol.

Re: [Felvtalk] prednisone
Jetty, Regarding prednisone - it will make a cat feel better and stimulate the appetite. It also sometimes can shrink certain kinds of tumors temporarily. But keep in mind that it also suppresses the immune system, which you usually want to avoid in a FeLV+ cat. Prednisone / Prednisolone is a great drug, but be sure to balance the benefits against the negatives for each specific cat. Prednisone will suppress inflammation, so it is harder to tell if your cat has developed an infection. Infections in a FeLV+ cat need to be treated quickly and for a longer time period.

Wallie seems to be doing right now he is eating a lot and is feelling much better than when I let him in. The vet prescribed him antibiotics and a prednisone treatment.
