Sharon,
I am 5'3'' and 135 pounds. My doctor prescribed 10 milligrams of prednisone once a day for five days, starting on Monday 4/18.
It did not cure of my poison ivy, but may have made it less than it would have been with no drug. I also used IvaRest yesterday and today to dry up the oozing.

Please shower instead of taking a bath!

I hope you are feeling better soon.
Rene
