I was prescribed 60mg yesterday, in the form of one 40mg pill + two 10mg pills a day.

Is it better to take all three pills at the same time or take the two 10's earlier and the 40 later? My derm mentioned I can take it all at once but she didn't really specify what was best, and I've heard a lot of people take it twice during the day. Thoughts?

P.S. Is 60mg too high for me if I way 131 pounds? My doctor knows how much I weigh so I'm assuming she wouldn't give me that if it's too high, but I still can't help but wonder.

did ur doctor say how to take em. i would say take the 40 in the morning and 20 at night.

60mg seems about the correct dose for 131lbs.

Well she said it was okay to take it all at once, but she didn't specifically say "take it this way", the way she said it she basically sounded like I could choose.
