See if you can get another pack right now and start that one where you left off on this pack. Thats what I had to do once before.

Re: Need Help FAST!

do you have a spare pack? take an extra from there and try to get a re-fill to replace that pack (that you took the extra one from)! OR Take the next one in the same pack (if it's the same dosage) and get a refill pack...

call the dr!

I have lost a pill a few times.... my Dr. said not to worry about it. Just keep taking the pills the same way...if you miss more than 2 than you should get a new pack

I agree--I did that once and took the next pill of the same color from the pack, then had the dr. call in for a refill so I wouldn't have too few of that color (I am on Ortho so there are the 4 different color pills).
