Can you start methylprednisolone in middle of the day

Yes, you can, if you wish to do so. The package says "unless otherwise directed by your doctor". I just had to start last night and the pharmacist instructed me to take all 6 at the same time. Probably do so with some food if you can, to reduce any possible stomach discomfort. I did take all six and had no adverse effects so far. Sleeplessness, but that's par for the course with me anyway. Everyone is different though, so stay safe and get better soon.

Thanks. I took all 6 and was fine. Appreciate your answering. I noticed small print on packet box that said if necessary, take all 6 together the first day. (not from Dr but on product box)
