I am prescribed 4 tablets twice a day and accidentally took two extra yesterday. I’m not feeling well today. I didn’t take my two morning doses today. Should i be concerned??

If you ever need to ask a questions about your meds after hours you an call (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) its poison control. They are open 24/7 and my doctor told me they have a whole pharmacy team and can even help with drug interactions. They were so nice when I called them. I was questioning an antibiotic and people with RA are more at risk with tendon issues. So I called my doctor and she prescribed something else. They said call anytime either before you take a new med or after if you have questions or if like you. I didn't know that phone was for just questions too. Hugs

I take it under the name Sulfasalazine. I take 2 in am in 1 pm. I have missed doses, no effects. It has been used for decades for RA symptom of hand and feet.

I also use a 24 hr pharmacy and they field all my questions.

I take that medicine for years and have never had any trouble and I'm no good at all on taking it at a set time. Maybe a little tummy upset and/or diar

Barbara U - With medication questions, I always talk with my pharmacist first if possible. They can usually steer you in the right direction.
