Tofranil PM: What Should I Do If I Miss a Dose?

If you do not take your Tofranil PM 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 Tofranil PM is taken during the day. Also, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take a double dose of Tofranil PM.
