What happens if, as occurred at 7:30 this morning, I distractedly popped a Nal while taking my morning vitamins. (I usually keep them far apart to avoid this, but messed up this time.)

Hence, I took a Nal in the early morning, yet I never start to drink until evening. Should I have a drink this morning to compensate? (It would take a bulldozer to force me to do so--can't imagine drinking during the day). Should I take another an hour before my five-o'clock trigger kicks in? (Two Nals in one 24 hr period?) Or should I skip my evening Nal, on the assumption that there is still enough in my system over the months that that total washout wouldl entail three days or so? (Of course the best course would to be to skip the evening Nal AND the evening wine and do something "fun" instead then--but I honestly don't seen that happening yet. (BTW, the recent post by LoOp about settings and triggers, using prison and VietNam as examples, was interesting. I guess I could set my watch and all the clocks in the house back so they never reach five pm, but boy would I be eternally jetlagged. )

I did that just once a few months ago. I thought about it and since it was a one time occurrence, I went through the day normally and when it was time for me to drink in the evening, I took my normal 50mg dose like I always did, waited my hour, then drank. I was never a morning drinker, so there was nothing to be gained by drinking in the morning; there was nothing to extinguish. In my opinion, double dosing Nal in one day is no big deal. Now if you took 300mg, that would be a problem for your liver, but we're not talking about dosages even approaching that.

My opinion, my experience, not medical advice.

New here...but since I took Nal the wrong way for about 10 mos. I'd say, take another one or at least split one later when you would have taken one an hour before drinking.
