But it's totally possible. What med is he taking and where does the "12 hour release" come from? DD's "extended release" med lasted only about 5-6 hours when she was taking the lowest dosage. and about 9 hours at the next dosage. How long meds last will vary by individual, and by the strength of the dosage.
