Hi,

It is a pretty long lasting and pretty safe medicine. It is generally given two or three times a day and that covers the day well. If most of the problem is at night then at least one dose should be at bedtime.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
