Suppose 5-6 hours gap would be sufficient, but however do double check it with the doc who prescribed the med.
Take care, best wishes!

My friend Rajive is correct, but usually 3 times a day means every 8 hours. Unfortuneately most of us are not up for that type of dosing, so the 5 to 6 hours would be fine. Make the last dose at bedtime to better help you sleep. Just because it says 3 times a day, does not mean you half to take it that often If you don't feel the need for it during all the day time. You can skip a dose if it makes you too sleepy.
