I started on Methylprednisolone tablets, USP 4 mg 6 days pack. Yesterday, was my second day and I forgot to take my bedtime 2 dose? My pharmacy is closed. I don't know what I should do? I did take the two this mornng.
Hi Sara:
Usually, instructions for missed doses of medication say to just continue your usual schedule after a missed dose. Check your package insert to see if there are any instructions for what to do about a missed dose. If not, no worries.
Your Medrol pack is low dose, and there's no great significance in getting a little out of rhythm in the taper. You can think of the missed dose as just an extra-long time between doses. Per the usual instructions, you can just continue with the tapering routine as if you hadn't missed that bedtime dose. Because of the "extra-long day," you'll just finish your Medrol pack about 12 hours later than you had planned.
