About
Downdose keeps your steroid taper straight: today's dose and tablets, a gentle reminder, a 20-second morning check-in, and a clear picture to show your doctor.
Made for people tapering prednisone or prednisolone – for polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), giant cell arteritis (GCA), lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, Crohn's disease or any other reason your doctor prescribed a taper.
WHAT YOU GET
• Today: your dose in mg and which tablets to take, marked as taken in one tap
• Reminder: a quiet nudge at your usual time, repeated if you miss it, plus a heads-up the evening before each step down
• Check-in: four quick questions each morning – stiffness, pain, flares, sleep
• My Plan: the taper steps exactly as your doctor wrote them, with the date of the next change
• History: dose and symptoms on one chart, from 4 weeks to all time, plus a day-by-day list
• Sick-day rule: your doctor's instructions for fever or vomiting, one tap away
• Works on iPhone and iPad, in English, German and Italian
