When and How Do I Take It?
Some general considerations for when and how to take Accupril include:
- The medication comes in tablet form. It is usually taken once or twice a day.
- It should be taken on an empty stomach -- at least one hour before or two hours after a meal.
- It should be taken at the same times each day to maintain an even level of Accupril in your blood.
- For the medication to work properly, you have to take it as prescribed. It will not work if you stop taking it.
The dosage your healthcare provider recommends will vary depending on a number of factors, including:
- Your age
- The medical condition being treated
- Other medical conditions you may have
- Other medications you may be currently taking.
As with any medication, do not adjust your dose unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
