What should I do if I forget a dose?
If you miss a dose of once-daily alendronate, do not take it later in the day. Skip the missed dose and take one dose the next morning as usual.
If you miss a dose of once-weekly alendronate, take one dose the morning after you remember. Then return to taking one dose once each week on your regularly scheduled day.
Never take a double dose to make up for a missed one, and never take more than one dose in 1 day.
