Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Ideally I think you should again wait 2 hour after the maalox of any other oral medications. It could decrease the absorption. Or you can give the prednisone and the granudoxy together and 2 hours later give the maalox. I hope this helps!
