Hi,

A little more than the prescribed dosage won't do much harm like landing in breathing difficulties. You need not worry about that. However, please use physician prescribed dosage only.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Grace, General & Family Physician
