How do I take Edecrin?

Edecrin is dispensed as a tablet that is taken orally once or twice a day, depending on the prescription. It is recommended that this medication be taken in the morning and, if on a two-dose regimen, in the afternoon (to prevent nightly urination). While the Edecrin drug controls the conditions for which it is prescribed, it does not cure them; continue to take it even if you are feeling well.

What if I forget to take a dose of Edecrin?

If you forget to take a scheduled dose of Edecrin, take it as soon as you remember and are able. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the one missed and resume the regular schedule. Do not increase the number of pills taken or change the dosing regimen to make up for a missed dose.
