Restarting safely after a break.
If you've had a gap, the right restart dose depends on how long it's been and where you were. A few quick questions, then your prescriber confirms the safe dose before you're supplied.

Why you can't just pick up where you left off
After a break, your tolerance can change. Restarting at your old dose can bring side effects back more strongly — so we check the gap before setting a safe restart level. It only takes a moment.
The three questions we'll ask
Answer these in the check and your prescriber confirms the dose.
1 · How long was the gap?
The length of the break is the biggest factor in a safe restart.
2 · What dose were you on?
Where you were before helps set where you pick back up.
3 · How were the side effects?
How you tolerated it last time shapes the restart plan.
Your prescriber confirms the restart dose.
