By now you know if you've survived the initial overdose, but in the future you should always call your doc or a poison control hotline about accidental overdoses. As for whether or not you should take a dose this morning, you will definately want to call your doctor on this. You may make it worse by adding more medication into your system, or you may have withdrawal symptoms by skipping the dose, and who know which is worse. You may be able to get this info from your pharmacist. Be sure and let whoever you call know that this is about an accidental overdose; that will get them to respond quicker since this is a time critical issue.
I hope you're doing okay today. Good luck.
