In case you realize you have missed a dose, the first thing to remember is not to panic. Take one when you remember, but avoid taking it if it is almost time for the next dose. Missing a dose may sometimes result in minor side effects, so pay attention to any changes that you may feel. When in doubt, reach out to a healthcare provider for advice.
