 Hello and thanks for posting. I'm assuming that you're on a twice-daily PEP regimen- such medications are not timed so precisely (ie., exactly 12 hours apart), but rather can simply be taken in the morning and evening. What's key to this (and the usual treatment for chronic HIV) is to not miss the dose, rather than the exact minute or hour. Hope that helps, BY | ||||||||
