Only rarely: It is a very good idea to ask your Dr before you do that but 1,000mg can be rarely used as a dose - if you need more than 1,000mg spread thru the 24hr day, you need to see your OBGYN for a Treatment plan. Cover-ups are risky and addictive. Not a good idea except for a very short time. Best!
