Correct answer: D — Follow the product-specific missed-dose advice and avoid taking extra beyond guidance
DOAC missed-dose advice depends on drug and indication. The best answer addresses the key safety, legal or pharmaceutical care issue in the vignette. The other options would either delay appropriate care, create a new risk, or fail to resolve the issue. This is consistent with the cited UK reference for safe pharmacy practice.
