I’m on 5mg. Struggled at lower dose so my very helpful Rheumatologist has told me to stay on 5 for three months since, like myself , he believes my PMR has retreated now. Then he will advise on how to reduce. BUT fool that I am I can’t remember if I took my dose last night and am in a bit of a state about it. I got too confident and stopped using my little tablet box which would have shown me if I had forgotten. Please help me. Don’t know whether to take 5 this morning or not. 🤭

Hi,
Might just as well..you’re only going to worrying about it all day if you don’t! An extra 5mg one day won’t hurt, better than none at all.
Back to the box 😏

Bit late for me to make a suggestion now - but if you remember that quickly it is OK, if it is close to the next dose you shouldn't (they say) but at 5mg - if you take a double dose for one day it won't do any harm and you will have a good day!
Thank you for your advice. A good suggestion is never too late. Will know next time should I be stupid enough to repeat the exercise. After all once is a mistake twice is incompetence.😉
