I KNOW THE USUAL DOSE FOR COSOPT IS TWICE DAILY IF I TOOK THREE TIMES A DAY FOR ONE DAY AND DIDNT DOUBLE UP ON IT WILL IT BE OK?

Taking the Cosopt three times one day and not doubling up will not hurt you, but I recommend that you start the correct dosing of twice a day for optimal therapy and let your doctor know that you did not use it correctly for that short period of time.
