The bottle doesn't say what the concentration of pred is. I know it is
Pediapred when I get it from my vet's office but when I had to fill the
prescription at CVS, it said Prednisolone 5 MG/5ML so perhaps that is
the equivalent to what I receive in my vet's office. Upon diagnosis, he
was getting .4cc 2x a day but his inner eyelids were getting puffier and
encroaching more on his eyes, so my vet decided to raise the pred to
.6cc BID until we go for our follow up.

I will try the artificial tears until my vet's office opens on Monday
and then I will call down and as about the Refresh liquigel..
Thanks!
