It is possible but rare, you should be fine and take medication right away when getting home. Try your best not to miss your med, take care.

Hope you remain seizure-free, and take it again ASAP. This is the essence of your doctor's admonition not to miss your medication. In meantime, do NOT drive, do activities at heights, work with power equipment. Likely, you will not experience a break-through seizure.
