Over two week gap

I recently went on holiday and as there was a delay in my order when I got back I now have 18 days since my last dose.
I now have a 5mg pen but am I right in thinking I can’t take it and have to order the 2.5 again? I’ve been on it for over a year and on maintenance
Thanks

I thought it was 3weeks before reducing?
I guess if you were worried you could count 30 clicks for your first dose or two if you are comfortable with that

Thank you. Would 30 clicks be half an injection? Sorry I’m being a bit stupid here

The working came back from holiday I split my 5mg dose - so 30 clicks (2.5mg) then the same again 3.5 days later.

That’s helpful thanks!

With an 18-day gap, I'd check with your prescriber or pharmacist before restarting the 5mg dose. The advice can depend on your treatment history and how long you've been without it, so it's best not to guess or automatically restart at your previous dose
