I think I lost a victrelis pill

I took my 6am ones and put 4 in my pocket and went to work. I work 7am to 7pm. I checked when I got here and only have 3. I looked all over the locker room and don't see it.  unless I took 5 at 6am but I doubt that. altho I did feel nauseas after and I normally never do.  is this going to hurt me if I miss one pill?

What if I missed a dose of Victrelis?

If you missed a dose and it is less than 2 hours before your next dose is due,
miss dose should be skipped.  If you missed a dose and it is 2 or more hours before the next dose is due, take the missed dose with food and continue the normal dosing schedule.  Do not double the next dose.  If you have questions about what to do, call your health care provider.

If you are stuck at and unable to go and get the 4th pill, if it were me, I would take the 3 I had at the scheduled time and move on, I don't think missing 1 pill is going to be detrimental to you treatment.

Have a great day

Type in "Victrelis" in web search.  you will see on the site a tab for how to
take this medication.  I understand that it says you can take the dose if its not
within 2 hours of the next dose time.  I also, would contact that company or
the pharmacy to get a replacement dose if you lost it.  It's very important you take all doses. They are usually very helpful in getting you a replacement.
Please read the Victrelis info about missed doses on their website.
