    Pemphigus - Anyone have experience???

    hi. the cost of the prednisone was not very much (can't remember the exact amount) but i actually got it at a regular pharmacy, not from the vet (vet called in prescriptions for me). they were very small tablets, and i didn't have any trouble giving them to my boy. best of luck to you.
