Abstract
A total of 230 patients with myasthenia, polymositis, disseminated sclerosis and myeloradiculopolyneuronitis were administered high doses of prednisolone (up to 100 mg) every other day. The treatment efficacy and low incidence of side effects and complications are emphasized. High doses of prednisolone given every other day do not inhibit secretions of endogenic ACTH and cortisol. The immunodepressant effect of the drug remains unchanged.
