Hi Michelle,
I started about 9 days ago. I take 5 pills all at once about 2 hours after my morning coffee in work. (I was told 2 hours after food constitutes an empty stomach). You do have to wait an hour before eating anything, too. Find a time that works best for you and take it the same time every day. I think the bedtime option has some merit as it would be easy to remember.
Good luck. You are the first person I've heard of taking it to prevent a recurrence - you trailblazer you.
Donna
