BTW, you can ask your pharmacist if the Cilest comes in a 28 day pack....many pills come in a 21 day pack and 28 day pack. If so, ask if you can get the 28 day since that is what you are already accustomed to. Cilest may come in a 28 day pack, but either your MD only wrote for the 21 day or that was all the pharmacist had on hand, or they don't come in a 28 day pack. Whatever happened, nothing terrible has happened, so relax.
