Hello,

These medicines work best if taken daily at the same time. However, taking one pill approximately 6 hours late may not cause any trouble. You should take the next pill at the usual time.

If you miss the dose for the entire day, that is 24 hours, do not take two pills together. Miss that pill and do take remaining pills on time and regularly.

Not to miss the dose next time, you can keep an alarm in your cell phone and as soon as the alarm rigs, take the pill.

I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HealthCareMagic. Take care.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
