Revlimid may be taken at any time of the day, so long as it is taken consistently at the same time each day. Some people suggest taking it at night if it makes you sleepy or in the morning if it keeps you awake. But the most important thing is to take it at a time you won’t forget.

Revlimid capsules should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and may be taken with or without food. Do not open, break, or chew your capsules and do not handle them any more than needed. If you touch a broken Revlimid capsule or the medicine in the capsule, wash the area of your body with soap and water

If you miss a dose of REVLIMID and it has been less than 12 hours since your regular time, take it as soon as you remember. If it has been more than 12 hours, skip your missed dose. Do not take 2 doses at the same time.
