Default overdose

My husband is getting more confused. This morning he took his bedtime meds thinking it was bedtime so he took his rilutec 2 hours after he took his morning dose. I have now locked up his meds but I hope this dosen't have a bad effect

I looked it up in the drug guide and it shouldn't hurt him. Don't give him more until tomorrow am.

Hello Judylyne- you have a double load fo responsibilty here. It is hard enough taking care of an ALs patient but dementia (is it dementia?) adds another level. Please keep in touch. I hope you have help at leastpart of the time! Cindy

i think it is important to take medicine according to the time because i have a mother who experienced dizziness when she took the medicine before the time.
