Always address this with your doctor. Half life varies widely from med to med, and even from person to person, depending on metabolism. Generally, the rule is to take it at the same time each day, and if you miss a dose, wait for the next one, but a lot will depend on your metabolism and sz threshold. Also consider when your szs most often occur.
 
Good luck!
 
Liz

This morning I was walking to church and thought I forgot my medicine. So I took some from my purse that I keep for emergencies.

I got home and saw that I had taken it after all.

Not sure if it is relevant but last Wednesday I had forgotten my night dose. I think it was Wednesday. So Thursday I took an extra half dose morning and night and have had no problems

Should I take my night dose? All? Half?
