How to Use -
How to Use HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually 4 times a day with meals and at bedtime. Allow the tablet(s) to dissolve in a full glass (8 ounces or 240 milliliters) of water for 3 to 5 minutes. Do not use any liquid other than plain water. If any medication remains undissolved, crush the pieces in the water and stir well. After the medication has completely dissolved, stir and drink the mixture. Take this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same times each day. The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Take this medication 2-3 hours before or after taking any products containing magnesium, aluminum, or calcium. Some examples include quinapril, didanosine, vitamins/minerals, and antacids. Dairy products (such as milk, yogurt), calcium-enriched juice, sucralfate, bismuth subsalicylate, iron, and zinc are also included. These products bind with phosphate, preventing its full absorption. Take this medication as prescribed. Do not increase your dose or take this more often without your doctor's approval.
Missed Dose MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose. Take your next dose at the regular time. Do not double the dose to catch up.
