Missed doxt SL dosage
I have pimples on my face (both cheeks)
My doctor had given me:
Deriva CMS cream - apply every night
Doxt-SL (30day dose after dinner)
I had this doxt SL dose for 10 days but then missed dose for 10 days for some reason and now recently when stared again had for 5 days. For the whole time I kept applying the cream
Is it fine to just continue and eat the remaining so it becomes 10day dose - 10day gap - 20day dose?
Or should I do something else?
Current state is 10day dose - 10day gap - 5day dose - now
Can't contact original doctor for a week from now since she comes to college occasionally.
