Brief Answer:
Continue same regimen prescribed by the doctor.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your query and concern.

Taking Zifi 100, 5ml twice a day instead of once a day on a given day is not harmful.

You can continue the same regime as prescribed by your doctor -ie 5 ml in the morning once a day.

Thank you.
