• ​Take the medication as prescribed by your doctor.
• Take this medication with food to prevent stomach upset.
• If you are taking a dose in the night, do not take it too late as it might keep you awake.
• You should still continue to take your medication regularly as told by your doctor even if you feel well. Stopping your medication suddenly without informing your doctors may cause your condition to become worse quickly.

​If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Then take your next dose at the usual time. Do not take two doses to make up for the missed dose.
