You're welcome.
Absolutely. I myself have used long term, "quality of life" steroids for two of my rats when we had nothing else to fall back on. There is definitely a place for the steroids and one rat had many months of good time with daily injections. But a food allergy of which we are just in the early phases now of trying to pinpoint... well a long acting steroid is past my comfort zone until I know she can handle prednisone without any major side effects. I truly appreciate you bringing the length of activity to my attention as I was on my way to the vet later today for that exact injection. Now we are going to opt for prednisone instead and see if we can get her on track with a minimal ingredient food.
