Missed my 2 pm Incivek

[michelehen]

This is the first time I missed my incivek, should I take it now and then again at 10 pm?

Thank you for any help

Thank you all very much - I made it by 30 minutes....lol  I did have it on my cell phone alarm, but we got new company cell phones and haven't program it yet.....I have to be at work by 6:30 am thats, why I start so early and believe you me I gag trying to eat so early.

Taking my 11th shot tonight - side effects had been pretty mild - and now having breathing problems ( which is normal ), but I get coughing attacks if I'm driving I have to pull over I get so dizzy.....also alot of pains in joints and muslcles ( which is also normal ) how long do these sides usually last?  Seriously I've been blessed only have these side effects.  

Thank you everyone for being here!

As per my doctor, if you miss a dose of Incevik, you can take it 1 hour later most. If you didn't already take your pills
----------------------------------------------

As stated by HPG and cando the  time is 4 hours if missed. Your doctor would be mistaken about the 1 hour

As per my doctor, if you miss a dose of Incevik, you can take it 1 hour later most. If you didn't already take your pills, then just move to 10 pm.
I have alarms set up on my  phone that reminds me of time to eat and time to take pills. I carry my cell phone everywhere.  I hope you don't miss dose again.
I see you are doing 8 hour difference. I do 7 1/2 hours. This way you don't have to start  your AM food too early. Just consider.
Good Luck.

If it is with in 4 hrs of normal dose time yes then take it and take your next dose at the normal time, if it has been more than 4 hrs since normal dose time skip the dose and take your next dose at normal time

Patients should be advised that the dose of INCIVEK must not be reduced or interrupted, as it may increase the possibility of treatment failure. The recommended dose of INCIVEK tablets is 750 mg (two 375-mg tablets) taken orally 3 times a day (7-9 hours apart) with food containing approximately 20 grams of fat.
Patients should be informed about what to do in the event they miss a dose of INCIVEK:

In case a dose of INCIVEK is missed within 4 hours of the time it is usually taken, patients should be instructed to take the prescribed dose of INCIVEK with food as soon as possible.
If more than 4 hours has passed since INCIVEK is usually taken, the missed dose should NOT be taken and the patient should resume the usual dosing schedule.
Patients should be advised to contact their health care provider if they have questions.

So if its been past 4 hours just wait until 10, either way don't sweat it
