Whenever I skip a dose by mistake I have nausea the following day.

I sometimes forget to take my tablet. Because I take them at night if I forget and don't realise until the next day I will just hold out until the night so I don't mess up my tablet times.

But, if I forget my dose you can be certain I'll wake up feeling nausea and dry heaving. Sometimes I vomit. The rest of the day is the poop.

Does anyone know how to combat this? I know I should take my tablets but sometimes I honestly forget especially if I'm working and my phone is silent.

    I was the same as you, I kept forgetting to take them so now I set my alarm on my phone at 7.00pm to remind me to take them. It's dangerous to just not take them like that.

      I've just ordered an electronic alarm from Amazon because I missed a dose last night too. That's 2 days in a row. I've just taken them. I'm on 150mg and the effects of skipping a dose are hell - especially 2 days. Thank you for Amazon prime same day delivery ha ha.
