Should I Take The Periods Postponing Tablets In A Specific Time Gap?

Im going to america the 27th october. Im due to come on the 28th oct. (Im always early or late) so im taking tablets to delay it. The time difference will be 5 hours behind uk. So taking the tablets will be at different times because i start taking them 3 days before. Does it matter what time i take them each day as long as i take 3? Or does it have to be a specific time with a specific gap? The 1st day i take them in uk will be different to when i take them on holiday.

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

Once the medication is taken within the same 24 hour period as it should be used, then there should be no problem.

Ideally it should be the at the same time but once you use it within the 24 hour span , it would have the same effect for you.

I hope this helps
