I agree with the waiting period, but given the post number and your vets recommendation, I would probably follow their orders. It would also depend on your dogs clinical signs. I would take that into account with what your vet is saying, before increasing the dose. I hope it works out whichever way you choose, because I'm right around the corner from where you are. I would also inquire about keeping a steroid injection on hand and ask your vet what signs to look for during an Addisonian crisis if god forbid one did occur. Just so you are ready to help your pooch if need be.
