@A myHIVteam Member yes I promise you will be ok!!! Set an alarm on ur phone so you don’t miss
Hopefully the medication is built up in your system, and it won’t make any difference, but chances are everybody misses a dose from now and then. We’re ok ok don’t make a habit of it though
missing a dose will not hurt you. These drugs are powerful and stay in your system for a couple of days actually. There have been studies where people took them for 4 days, then had 3 days off and it was just as effective as taking a daily pill. So if you miss a day, nothing to worry about. As someone above mentioned, set a daily alarm on your phone. Keep a days worth of meds in your car in case you're not home to take them.
Hi, I'm fine. I put mine in a 7-day pill organizer and set an alarm ⏰ on my cell phone with a light vibrator.
Hola estoy bien, las mías pongo en pastillero de 7 días y alarma ⏰ mi celular con vibrador lumínico.
It used to happen to me very often because I didn't have a specific time to take it, so I decided to take it at night before going to bed. Now I never forget ☺️ You'll be fine, don't worry.
Me pasaba muy seguido porque no tenía un horario preciso para tomarlo entonces decidí tomarlo por las noches antes de acostarme a dormir ahora ya no se me olvida ☺️ estarás bien no te preocupes
