Overdose with Sinequan can be very dangerous. If you happen to take an overdose, seek medical attention immediately.

Keep Sinequan and all medications out of the reach of children.
What Should I Do If I Miss a Dose?
If you do not take your Sinequan as scheduled, take your missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if you usually take your dose at night, you may not want to make up the missed dose, due to the risk of drowsiness if Sinequan is taken during the day. Also, if it almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take a double dose of Sinequan.
