Brief Answer:
No

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
Relax, it is not a big problem. The usual dose of Cefprozil is 500mg every 12 to 24 hours depending on the site and severity of the infection. So if you are on twice a day dose and are better, skip your next dose due after 12 hours. If you are on single dose per day , do not skip the next dose and take 500mg at the usual time.
