If you skip a dose of Macrobid (nitrofurantoin), take it as soon as you remember, unless it's almost time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule; do not double up on doses. It's important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed to effectively treat your infection. If you have concerns or miss multiple doses, consult your healthcare provider for guidance.

Does the dosage matter with birth control to keep it effective Or is it the lower the dosage the less affective it is or does it not matter. Does it still work not matter how high or low it is?

Both high and low dosages work the with same effectiveness. There isn't any difference. The trick is that the low dosage needs to be taken at the same time each day. With a high dosage, you are more "covered" if you forget to take one for about 12 hours. With a low dosage pill, you will also find you are unable to "skip" a period. The higher dosage pills allow you to sometimes continue on with the active pills and not take the sugar pills. You with therefore not have a period and therefore "skip" your period one month. Doctors prefer you to be on the lowest dosage pill that works for you. I took the lowest dosage pill for seven years with no problems.
