Foundayo pill 0.8 mg questions
How long do I stay on Foundayo pill 0.8 mg?
The initial schedule uses at least 30 days at each dose level. Follow your prescribed plan and discuss side effects before any increase. Your prescriber should explain when to review progress and whether the next step is appropriate.
How much does Foundayo pill 0.8 mg cost?
Aero’s treatment prices are not yet confirmed. Before paying, ask for the total price, pack quantity, prescribing fees, dispensing and delivery charges, and follow-up costs. Use your provider’s written quote in the cost planner.
What if I miss a dose of Foundayo pill 0.8 mg?
Take the missed dose as soon as possible. Do not take more than one tablet in a day and do not double up. The UK SmPC gives no hours cut-off. The US label adds that after 7 or more missed doses in a row, dose escalation restarts at a lower dose.
Can I start on Foundayo pill 0.8 mg?
The licensed starting dose is 0.8 mg once daily. A prescriber must first assess whether Foundayo is suitable for you and explain the treatment schedule. Follow your prescription and the current product information.
When should I move from 0.8 mg to 2.5 mg?
Your prescriber decides when to move to the next dose. Foundayo’s UK schedule requires at least 30 days at each dose level. Follow your prescription and discuss side effects or concerns before increasing; a weight-loss plateau is not the sole criterion.
