What am I supposed to do if I forget to take my medication? Once or twice I've forgotten to take my Synthroid (this dose isn't even working @.150mcg)...I don't know what to do? Do I just resume taking them the next day?

Thanks, April.

I didn't think we could double the doses. I almost did one day and thought different.

I have to call and schedule a lab test. I meant to do it, but kept putting it off. I still feel run down, I'm in a fog, and I have nothing. Not a pep in my step.

My doctor and pharmacist have both told me not to double up on the doses. Their advice is that if I remember before noon (I usually take my meds at 6 am), to go ahead and take it. Otherwise, wait until the next day.
