At that stage, one's options are either to add a second flight on a separate ticket or to lose the one you have (potentially with bad consequences if it is only the outbound part of a more complex itinerary).
Isn't it possible to buy one of those insurances that cover missed connections? I researched this some time ago and I think they affordable. But they cover you only if the connection time is not too tight, usually 3 hours minimum.
