Hello,
You have been using prednisolone for a long time and it is advisable to reduce it's dosage gradually in order to prevent the side effects of stopping it. Use probiotics to re-establish the intestinal flora.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
