A member asked:
The patient was prescribed an antibiotic that he threw up about an hour after taking it, as he claims he saw the pill. is it safe to retake the pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is quite likely that he regurgitated the medication. He should take the medication(a new capsule) again. I think that missing the dose is more of a problem than taking a double dose.
