Missed Dose

If you miss a daily dose during the first 2 weeks of treatment, skip the missed dose. Take your next dose at the regular time. Do not double the dose to catch up.

If you miss a dose from week 3 onward, take it as soon as you remember, then go back to your usual 3-times-a-week dosing schedule. Make sure that there is at least 24 hours between your doses and that you do not take more than the weekly dose in a 7-day period. If you are unsure of what to do after a missed dose, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

Overdose

If someone has overdosed and has serious symptoms such as passing out or trouble breathing, call 911. Otherwise, call a poison control center right away. US residents can call 1-800-222-1222. Canada residents can call 1-844-764-7669.
