waiting period

Hi, I read where x amount of time should be left before labs when mfgr. of meds changes. Since the mfgr. of my NDT had not changed in the 3 yrs I've been on this particular brand, I did not save the info in my head. Well, when I went to pick up rx a couple of weeks ago, the mfgr. had changed. I am due for labs soon; how long to wait before I will have labs reflecting the new mfgr. ? Thank you to all!

Six weeks is the normal length of time for things to settle and results to become reliable. :)
