Is Missing One Dosage Of Antibiotics A Concern?

I missed my 3:00pm dose of amox....cilin. I take it 3 times a day. 9am 3pm and 9pm I took the second dose at 8pm. Should I get up at 1 am or 2 am and take the third dose or just wait until I get up at 6 am? I m going for a root canal at 9 am. Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Nothing will happen in case you miss a single dose. You can continue the rest of the dose as usual.

Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
