Has this happened to anyone? drug related... particularly prednisone *pic added*

I was taking prednisone from Kraupners and today I got my refill. The ones I was taking previously are like a third of the size of the ones I just got! These also look more powdery Chat Icon I called the Kraupners and spoke to a pharmacy tech to make sure it's the same thing... and she said it is, just that different companies manufacture the drug so it looks different sometimes. It's just weird that the one I WAS taking was sooo much smaller!! It looks a lot different to me now.


Has this happened to anyone else on prednisone.. or any other drug?

Things are just going so well now that it makes me nervous to sccrew with the system .. I know I'm just being paranoid and crazy, but I hope THIS prednisone is truly the same!! Tell me I'm crazy Chat Icon Chat Icon

**pic added** scroll down......

What do you ladies think? I feel like it's a pretty notable size difference...

I had prednisone pills that were different size, BUT they were different mg (my 5 mg pill was smaller than my 10 mg). Could that be what happened??

Ok so I got nervous and called Freedom since their customer service is better than Kraupners Chat Icon

I read the little inscription on both pills to the pharmacist over the phone and she confirmed they are both 10mg pills.


I feel better now...

Onto finding something new to worry about Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

My 10 mg prednisone definitely matches the larger size pill if that makes you feel better ;)

I would be the same way - you just don't want to leave anything to chance after you've come so far!

The same thing happened to me. And I called the pharmacy too just to make sure, I even googled it.
Everything was fine.
