Medical (general)
Take 2 tablets by mouth on odd days and 1 tablet on even days.
What is meant by odd days and even days in this context?
I am also curious to know is there any other way of taking the tablets other than mouth? Thanks in advance.

I don\'t think there is another way of taking a tablet other than by mouth. ¶:^)

: (may be "by mouth" to indicate they should be swallowed whole rather than e.g. dissolved in a glass of water?)

Armorel Young
: yes, although I find it an odd formulation because if a month has 31 days you will take a consecutive double dose on the 31st and 1st, which doesn't sound right.
