I need an answer QUICK! (about meds.....)

Post by MyBoyParker »

Ok, I realized tonight that I forgot to take my Lupron shot this morning. I've been doing 5 units a day. So, I was wondering what I should do......take 5 units tonight, and 5 in the morning......or 10 units in the morning.......or just do my normal 5 units in the morning, and just skip a dose.

Please HELP!!! (I've never forgotten before.........)

Sorry I don't really have an answer from experience...but I think I would have taken the 5 units the second that I remembered it. My RE said that they tried to keep it the same time (within a few hours before or after) everyday....so again? Maybe take it now and then move your morning dose later by a few hours to compensate?

Hope you get a concrete answer from someone who's done this before :)

I forgot to take my Lupron shot right before ET and I had to call the doctor on-call to ask what to do. He said just to add the dose with the next one. I would definitely call your RE office to see what they say.
