I went to my Dr and he gave me a prescription. It says to take one pill every 12 hours. How many should be dispensed by my pharmacy for the prescription? Thank you.

Hi Addie, may I ask which medication was prescribed to you?

If your prescription says to take 1 pill every 12 hours, that is 2 pills per day. So, that's about 60 pills per month (2 pills * 30 days). Do you know how long your prescription is supposed to last for? Is it 1 week? 2 weeks? 1 month? Knowing that I could give you a more precise number of how many pills should be dispensed to you.

Hope this helps and please let me know!
