Count the clicks

I know this has been asked before but I need help, currently on 7.5 with 2 doses left in the pen, for reasons I don't want to put out here I haven't been able to take my dose which should have been last Wednesday.
Its a week down the line and i can now safely take them and I know I can't just inject the same dose, i don't want to loose these last two 7.5s so can someone tell me how many clicks would be 2.5 so I can use the remaining 2 doses out of my pen for potentially an extra week or so? At the lower dose, I've been on this for a while and I know I will still respond to the lower dose and not waste it.
I can't afford any more pens or anything after this so I really don't want to waste what I have left.

Have you only missed one dose? If yes I’m pretty sure you can stick with 7.5mg. Check the instructions leaflet for what to do if you miss a dose

I thought you had to miss about 3 weeks to have to go back to the start dose but I may be wrong

60 clicks for a full dose and 2.5mg is a third of 7.5mg
20 clicks for 2.5mg from a 7.5mg pen
30 clicks for 3.75mg
40 clicks for 5mg

but if you want to decrease in a 7.5mg pen 2.5mg will be 20 clicks or 5mg will be 40 clicks. You might find after being on 7.5mg the 2.5mg doesn’t do much.
