Hello, Jack! How are you?

This is an antibiotic, so you can't really overdose on it, thus a double dose would only be really dangerous if you were allergic to it. Otherwise, you are most likely to experience more severe side effects than usual, which as reported by the FDA, may include nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea.

However, it is always best to inform your doctor of what happened, just in case.

Is there anything else I can help with?
