meds question
« on: January 30, 2009, 03:35:42 pm »
my boyfriend has this habit of sometimes forgetting to take his morning meds but then he'll take his evening dose. So I was wondering, if any of you had asked your doctors about this, is there the same benefit if you were to take your morning and evening doses at the same time, if you did forget to take them in the day time? Or would it just be useless to do so? I was curious about that.

Adherence is a big thing with this.  It is supposed to have a contant dose in your body which is why they tell you to take them at the same time everyday.  If he is having a hard time with morning meds, he should talk to his doctor about taking a one a day pill which is usually at night.
