Re: Verwon (# 1)
Clavamox by mouth every twelve hours
3am .....
One rotation of analog clock
Or same am & pm time
Or on 24hr clock just add 12 to the time you took first dose
I would suggest getting on a schedule you are normally awake such as 8am 8pm or 10am 10pm or some other combination
If me not say n you should if I was sleeping ""normal"" I would go ahead & sleep if going to bed at 11:30 or later take the 3am dose when go to bed then take next dose on time you want schedule to be on .....
But like I said that's just what I would do ....
Might wanna check w/Dr

If I give my brother medicine at 3am then again at 3pm is that 2x a day ? He's takes kepra
It should be taken again 3am.
Depends on the half-life of the drug and how acute the condition being treated.
Uuhhh, 3 am. Take every 12 hours means take every 12 hours.

That would be 3 am. Might want to change your dosing schedule if it's every 12 hours. Maybe take your first dose earlier so that the second one doesn't fall in the middle of the night.
Re: Roy (# 4)
So if I take my med at 3:pm next dose at ??
Not really sure how to answer that!?
I would recommend setting a 12hr schedule to consider with your sleep pattern. Say you sleep 11 to 7. You'd take your med at 8 and 8 or 0800 and 2000hrs. Thus if you sleep in a little you have a buffer or even 0900 and 2100 depending on if you leave regularly before 9am, but you probably get the idea...

Yes thank you you ever wonder why they just say that on the bottle

Re: Sur (# 17)
If you took your first dose at 9am and need to take it every 12 hours, the next dose would be at 9pm (21:00)
Re: Dian (# 3)
If I took a medication at 9am and to take it every 12 hours what time would I need to take it again
I will take my meds after 12 hrs at 3pm.
Re: Money (# 13)
12 hours from 11 is also 11:
11am ... 11pm
Or in military time:
11:00 ... 23:00
If I take my medicine at 11 what is the next in 12 hrs
Re: Verwon (# 1)
I am taking Prednisone for Cat Scan contrast dye.
