How long?

Yesterday, I called in a refill of azathioprine. It has not been refilled yet. I have gone two days without the medicine. How long can i safely be without it?

Aza is not like biologic
You don’t build up
Antibodies
But at least for ds when he stopped 6-mp
Within a week he was a mess again
Others take longer

Hope you get the script tomorrow
Can the pharmacist give you emergency pills?
Sometimes they can give 2-3 pills till your doc calls it in based on an old script
