What Does 3 Times A Day Mean As In Medicine

Usually, the standard is that people eat 3 times a day. I'm assuming (just assuming) that the bottle is suggesting that you take it around meal time.

Three times a day mean morning, noon and dinner time

3 times a day refers to how many times you should take your medicine throughout the day. Obviously.

If the drug should be taken with food then most people will take there tablets at breakfast, lunch and dinner. This makes sense, and makes it easy to remember.

However, what is best for treatment is to take medicine at exact intervals through-out the whole day. So three times a day becomes one dose every eight hours. A good time frame for this is 6am, 2pm and 10pm.

This ensures more stable concentrations of drug in your body at once, decreasing the chance of side effects related to peaks of drug concentrations if you were to take your pills at say 8am, 12 midday and 7pm.  It also keeps the drug at effective concentrations in your body ensuring that they work throughout the whole day.

Above all, read the instructions on the medication, and follow instructions given by your doctor and pharmacist. Oh and do not go to chiropractors ... For anything.

This expression is usually used by doctors or physicians at the time of prescribing pills to patients, for instance, "take this pill three times in a day, every day for two weeks". It normally goes together with associated medical counsel, like taking the pill following a meal, or between meals, or on an empty tummy, prior to sleeping, instantly after getting up etc.

The regularity of the times one is obligated to take the medication is directly proportional to the dosage that he or she is provided. For instance, if one is prescribed a high dosage of any type of medication, then he or she will not need to take the medication many times in a day and vice versa. Medication of this nature is generally given as a course over a period of time, ranging from a few days to several weeks or months depending on the nature of one's condition.
