Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You should continue orofor tab till your hemoglobin count becomes normal. Then you can stop it according to your doctor's advice. Steroids should not be taken for long time. So you are going on right way. Continue your treatment with pause according to need.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
