Answer
Hi, how are you?
No you do not need to take it again at night.
Continue taking your medication at your regular time the following day.

Hi Annette, please don’t worry, this won’t be a problem. It is probably easier to just continue as usual and at the usual time for all your meds. Missing of being late or early won’t occasionally will not be a problem.
