or will i die?

typically if you miss a dose of any medication you are supposed to take it as soon as you remember. if it is almost time for your next dose, however, you should wait for that and just take a normal dose. never double up because you missed a dose.Say you have an infected toenail, and the doctor prescribes you pills for it?
It would be irresponsible to answer your question without knowing exactly what pharmaceuticals you are taking. You should consult with your local pharmacist, you don't need to make an appointment or pay them for their advice. It is their job to know about the drugs that you are taking and they went through at least 4 years of medical school the same as your general physician. If the pharmacist is not available you should go to the nearest hospital ER and ask the nurse on duty.
