Yes, but your doctor is the one to ask. You can take it every 4 hours but that does not mean you can take six a day, the effect might build up. Pharmacists are also a good source for answers on medication. They often give more complete and understandable answers than the docs.
Since Darvocet has Tylenol in it, you cannot take them within 4 hours of each other. Try alternating Darvocet with ibuprofen - take the ibuprofen every 6 to 8 hours, and if you need Darvocet, take it at least 3 hours after the ibuprofen. That way, you won't get too much Tylenol, but it will relieve your pain better.
This kind of a hard question... There really is no law about that except that getting high on the pills is wrong. If you take them legitimately for pain every 4-6 hours and the prescription is in your name you are legal.
It depends on the amount of the medication - If the medication is in higher dosages it may mean you can take only one tab every 4 hours up to 12 hours. Meaning you can only take the dosage 4 times. If its a lower dose you may be called to take it every 4 hours for 24 hours.
It means take 1 or 2 (med dose - pills, teaspoons, etc.) every 6 hours. The "q" means "every" in medical terminology.
That means take it every 6 hours. 24 hours in a day, divided by 4 is 6.
My prescription says every 4 hours, during the hours you are awake. Most people I talk to with ADD take it twice a day only. It depends on your specific needs and how your doctor prescribed it. You DO have a prescription, don't you?
Let us say you take Tylenol every 4 hours and Motrin every 6 hours. How often do you need to take both medications at once? To answer this, you need to find the LCM of 4 and 6 which is 12. So every 12 hours you take both drugs at the same time.
Yes, they can, My doctor did.
I take the yellow 2mg bars and usually only have to take 1 every 3 to 4 hours. Now, some days i have to take 2 bars as my first dose then 1 every 4 hours.
doctors seem to strongly sugggest never to take more than 1 every 4 hours. I'm taking the 4 mg every 4 hours, but think tolerance would just increase the mg, but would stay at every 4 hours eaither way
Well you should take cough drops every 4-6 hours.
Take every 12 hours. See link: http://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=5033
