Any thoughts on this?
Anybody have this happen?
What is a pill sorter and why do you need one? Are you talking about a 'Pill Organizer'?
I go to pretty extensive links with alarm clocks and cell phone alarms to ensure I don't miss/mix any dosages, I have (3) 7-day pill organizers that I use for different times of the day + (1) 7-day organizer for PRN Rx's. On the day that I refill those organizers, I turn off the TV, eliminate sources of interruption, and I pay attention to what I'm doing.
Some of my HIV Rx's are very toxic and hard to take as prescribed. I would hate to go through the pain of taking a double dose!
What are your Ribavirin doses? Do you take different mg Ribavirin tablets AM vs PM? I take Sovaldi + 600mg Riba in the AM then 400mg Riba in the PM as shown in the my Rx's link in my signature. I'm wandering that if your doses are similar maybe somehow this got you mixed up on your Sovaldi?

Are you on Olysio and Sovaldi? Olysio comes in packs of 28 and Sovaldi 30. You may have taken the two doses of sovaldi at the same time without even noticing since you are just used to popping two pills at a time.

Tell your Doc you got sick and lost the two dose's, he may be able to replace them. If you get sick and it has not been2 hours since you took the Sovaldi, you need to re-dose,

I'm two months in and I have one month to go.
The pharmacy called to arranged delivery of my last months supply of medications. We also went over the two-month supply of meds I just completed. After the count the pharmacy says they gave me more sofosbuvir pills (two) than what I say I took. In other words they say I should have two pills left. I assume I accidentally doubled up and took more than I should have. (I have a pill sorter)
They said that I will just have to 'run out sooner' and that it should be okay. They're just not sure though.
