Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i take medicine twice daily and i realized this evening when i was about to take my second dose of 500mcg tykosyn of the day that i had probably already taken it this morning, maybe an hour or so after the first dose. 1st 6:30ish 2nd 8:00ish am. i felt fine all day till i realized the possible double dose. i skipped my evening meds, thinking i d had them already and planned to start again in the morning but I ve gotten worried and read of the seriousness of the tykosyn overdose. it s been 15 or 16 hours now, should i go to the emergency room?
You do not need to go to the emergency. Since you have not yet had any adverse reaction till now, just observe. It will not disturb you. I will advise you just continue with your next dose in the morning and avoid missing or doubling doses.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Mbuomboh Veranso
