  If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. If it is within 4 hours of the next dose, skip the missed dose (about 6 hours in the case of extended- or slow-release preparations). Never double up doses.
  Despite your inconvenience and discomfort, your Lisalt blood levels, thyroid function, and kidney function need to be monitored as long as you take Lisalt.
