• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I'm currently taking penicillin for, what may or may not be strep throat, twice a day. Today at work my relief called in-AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-to ask if I'd work late for him and he'll come in early for me later in the week. So when I get home I'm going to be taking my pill one and one half hour later than usual. Will it hurt me if I take it at the usual time tomorrow which would mean that I would take it after only 10 and a half hours to get back on my schedule of taking my prescription?

Why not ask a pharmacist?

Well you take it twice a day, I remember when I took penicillin, I had to take them every 8-12 hours I think, so I would take them where I can take one early in the morning and one kinda late at night...but I did that by how many hours I had to wait...by the way, I know you are sick now but I wouldn't take too much of those penicillin, antibiotics are not good for your kidneys...
