It means take one tablet by mouth twice a day. Since a day is 24 hours, dividing that by two means one tablet every 12 hours.
It means just what is says. Swallow one tablet (pill) orally twice each day for 7 days. Twice each day would be like with breakfast and then with dinner. So you take two pills (tablets) each day, one in the morning and another in the evening. Some medications require that they be taken with food.
Typically DF is not written on a prescription to tell you how often to take a tablet. It is normally written qd, bid, and tid (once, twice, three times a day).
It means 1(one) tab (tablet) BID (twice a day).BID means Two times a day. The drugs to be taken Two times daily.
you are sick
If you have pain, you can take one pill. You can take it no sooner than 12 hours after the last dose.
Answer qd means every day so if your prescription states take one tablet qd it means to take one tablet every day.
q.d. or daily. Example: Multivitamin one tablet daily. (Daily is preferred to q.d. since q.d. can be confused with q.i.d or 4 times daily, b.i.d, twice daily preferred over 2 times a day. etc.)
It means to take one tablet three times a day.
Teeth, you wouldnt just brush one tooth twice a day?
No,12 hours apart.2*12=24 there are 24 hours in one day.
Double check with the prescriber of the tablets, but it is normally worded. two tablets a day or one tablet twice daily I:E every 12 Hours
