I was three days late with a dose because of travel and then spent a week unsure whether I had reset something or simply shifted it.
Practical rule most prescribers use for weekly dosing: within five days, take it and keep the original day; past five days, skip it and resume. Do not double.
The bit I cannot resolve on my own is whether a dose three days late resets the ladder or just shifts it.
Practical detail welcome, however dull — the duller the better.

Missed dose question about a missed dose: I'm 2 days late on my injection. Should I take it now or wait until my regular day?
UPDATE: Called my provider — they said take it now and resume my regular schedule next week. Apparently being a few days late isn't a big deal as long as you don't double up.

Agreed on the substance. I would put less weight on the timescale, because two months of anything is not enough to distinguish a trend from a wobble.

Same pattern here, and in the same order.
Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. Most of what circulates confidently in this community traces back to one summary of one study, and the qualifier was dropped somewhere in the third retelling.
