Is 4 mg the right dosage for methylprednisolone?

Mayo Clinic reports that the typical dosage of oral methylprednisolone is between 4 to 48 milligrams per day for adults. The correct dosage depends on the condition being treated and the severity of the condition.

Mayo Clinic defines methylprednisolone as a corticosteroid medication that works on the immune system to reduce inflammation, itchiness, redness and allergic reactions. It is used to treat a variety of conditions including severe allergies, kidney problems, lupus, vision problems, asthma, arthritis, blood and bone problems and flare-ups of multiple sclerosis. Methylprednisolone should always be taken according to the prescription ordered by the doctor due to possible side effects and interactions.
