I've been taking it like clockwork for a little while now every 12 hours, 10:30-10:30.    but last night i forgot and didnt take it til 12:00pm so I was about an hour and a half late, should i still continue the 1030 thing or what should i do?   did i mess myself up??

Don't worry, you will be fine.  Just really try to keep on schedule for the next month and once it is completely in your system, the odd time you take it late won't matter.  It's just a good idea to keep it on schedule so you don't forget completely one day or think that you have taken it when you haven't.  I wear a watch that has two alarms and I set it for my morning meds and my evening meds.  This way, I rarely miss my appointed pill taking time.  I know this kind of watch isn't the most attractive but it does the trick for me and that's all that matters.

Ditto to what Jikan said especially if you have been taking this medication for over a month.  The only reason I asked, how long, is that if it had been just a couple of days, you may have felt a little out of whack for a day and then you would be right on course again. So not to worry, you are fine.

Namaste,

You haven't messed yourself up, as you say.

We've all made mistakes with the timing of our medication, especially if you take several.

Just go back to your regular schedule and you'll be fine.
