Hi, hope everyone's as well as can be, just a quick question.

I inject my metx on a Friday evening, would it be ok to do it a day earlier? As in tonight? as I always feel rubbish next day.

And just want to wish you all a merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 😊 and stay safe jojo xx

No, you must not take it twice in a week, if you want to change the day you would need to do it a day late each week until you get round to the day you want to take it.

Just didn't want to feel rubbish on Christmas day as I take it Friday evenings.

Agree with AC, you could miss a week and take it next Thursday and every Thursday from then on. Unless of course you flare quickly if you miss a dose.

Taking Metojet several hours earlier is neither here nor there if that helps. But if want to change days you need to take it a day later rather than earlier.

I’m on tablets not injection. I take 25mg weekly. Last time I was going away on holiday I asked about taking a day earlier so I wasn’t struggling travelling, my rheumatologist was fine bringing it forward a day. Best to follow your rheumatologist advice 🤗. I then kept to my original day
