Suggest taking the "missing" pill, then allow a period of 12 hours between the next two doses. If symptoms persist, consult the physician who prescribed the medication for repeat cultures and/or treatment.

It is acceptable to take the next pill after 2PM and finish the course with the last pill before bedtime today.
