It will not have any effect at all … it does not hurt to miss the odd dose now and then as long as you do not make a habit of it .

Hi Poppy,

As Jeff said, missing the occasional dose is OK.
We are all human and all have missed doses. it just happens.

This is your first miss in six months. I think you should get a pat on the back for doing very well.

HUGS,

Mark

Humanity has anything to do with HIV/AID, one has to be disciplined and faithful when taking meds.  No body exactly knows when one miss a dose except telling the fact that one should be faithful.
