Suggest Dosage For Methylprednisolone

My doctor has prescribed methylprednisolone, 4 mg dosepk, However there were no instructions on the medication supplied to indicate just how many tablets should be taken and when or how oftem. He did say that the instructions were inside the medication. There were instructions, warnings, side effects, but there was no clear information about the actual taking of the medication. Any suggestions, information, advice in this regard???? thank you Jerry
