Depo Lupron Injection, Norethin Ace 5mg. Please Suggest On Dosage Of Medicine?

I have been given a 3 month Depo Lupron injection (as of yesterday) and my doctor has also given me Norethin Ace 5mg but only 3 tablets and I am unsure of when i m supposed to take them since there are only 3... I took 1 yesterday at 4pm because the instructions say to take 1 tablet daily every 24 hours, but with only 3 total pills I am a bit confused... She had said it was to help counteract the affect of the injection so I m wondering if I m only supposed to take it when I have the symptoms... any light you can shed would be very appreciated

As you have not write your diagnosis. Although drug you have asked for LUPRON DEPOT plus norethindrone acetate 5 mg therapy for initial management of the symptoms and signs of endometriosis.
The course of therapy is 6 months.

There for if your diagnosis is endrometriosis than please consult with your doctor and confirm the norethin dose.
