This type of schedule helps prevent frequent exacerbations in some people with COPD. Using a pill organizer with days of the week labeled can help you remember which days to take it. Setting alarms on your phone for those specific days is also helpful.
If you're finding it difficult to remember or have concerns about this medication schedule, talk with your healthcare provider. They can help ensure it's working well for you and address any side effects you might be experiencing.
