A member asked:
I make a mistake and took my atorvastatin this morning instead of my usual time in the evening before bed. should i take it tonight at the regular time or skip the dose this evening and start again tomorrow evening at the normal time?

Skip and take tomorrow as usual. Common at the fast paced current lifestyle, use of a weekly pillbox may help in avoiding future similar mishaps.

You may skip the dose this evening and start again tomorrow with the recommended regimen. I expect no adverse effects from the error in timing as you describe.
