Taking prednisone 10 milligrams should ideally be done first thing in the morning with food or water.

If taking the medicine for less than a week to 10 days, one can safely stop it suddenly.

However, taking it for more than a week to 10 days requires a slower decrease of the dose to ensure safety.

It is recommended to consult a pharmacist or doctor to check the directions of taking this medication over a period of up to five days.

3. If taking prednisone for less than a week to 10 days, discontinuing suddenly is safe.
4. If taking prednisone for more than a week to 10 days, it is important to taper down the dose slowly.
