Can I still take it as if nothing happened, like I was suppose to take it last night, but now it's the morning. Do I take the prescription in the morning or what!!??

Don't worry too much. Most doctors and pharmacists will tell you to wait to the next time you are scheduled (tomorrow night). It's best to take the meds at the same time each day. It depends on what the medication is. The other option is to take prescriptions now and stay on a morning schedule.
Feel free to shoot me an email if you have more questions.

Depending on the timeframe for your dosing as the last poster said most manufacturers say to go ahead and take the missed dose unless it's almost time for your next dose but I would recommend going ahead and checking with your pharmacist to be on the safe side.

It always depends on the drug you are taking. In some cases, missing a dose can be dangerous. In other cases, it is fine. Check with a pharamacist or your doctor and ignore people who say its fine. They are telling you it's fine without even knowing what meds you are taking.

In general, most drugs say: if you miss your prescription take it immediately, unless you are close to your next scheduled dose.

If it hasn't been more that 12 hours since you would have normally taken it you will probably be fine taking it now.
