My daughter can’t remember if she took her Pristiq today. She knows if she misses a dose she will feel awful tomorrow. Should she take a dose now, take half a dose, or not do anything?

Generally, taking a one time double dose isn't dangerous, unless you are sensitive to Pristiq, allergic to it, or on another medication it may react with, so please watch for signs of any possible issues, such as severe dizziness, extreme drowsiness, or feeling faint.

It is also best to consult your doctor, to be sure.

Peter, are you on any other medications? There might be some issues with mixing, as well as the usual side effects, which may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and mood changes.

Nancy, what has her doctor advised her to do in this situation?
