It means that as soon as you pick up the prescription from the pharmacy: -- Take 3 right away, then -- take 3 more in 6 hours, then -- take 3 more in 6 hours after those, then -- take 3 more in 6 hours after those, then -- take 3 more in 6 hours after those. Once you get going, you'll be taking 12 pills every 24 hours.
That means take it every 6 hours. 24 hours in a day, divided by 4 is 6.
Two.
Yes - since there are 24 hours in a day, to take something four times a day would require you to take it every six hours, on average.
Yes, they can, My doctor did.
Two hours.

If my math is correct, 7days, 12 hours.
I am not sure how many tabs you take if you take the every four hours. You will have to tell me how long you have to take them.
It means take 1 or 2 (med dose - pills, teaspoons, etc.) every 6 hours. The "q" means "every" in medical terminology.
1 pill every 6 hours is 4 a day. 60 pills divided by 4 pills a day is 15 days.
The pills will finish in 4 hours and 30 minutes
1 lozenge every 2-3 hours, no more than 6 a day!
every 6 hours means you will probably take four within a 24hr period. Your pills should last 15 days
every 8 hours
2 hrs
If the directions on your bottle say take once every 6 hours, then probably. But the bigger question is: Is the medication even really necessary to take in the first place. Docs throw pills around now like they're going out of style!
