Question : I took my once a day lisinopril this morning around 8:30 because I forgot it last night and then not thinking took my nightly dose at 10:30. So approximately 14 hours apart. Should I worry that my blood pressure will drop dangerously low overnight?
Brief Answer:
Dont worry.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
After going through the medical query raised by you i can understand your concern and i would like to tell you that as there is a time difference of more than 12 hrs between two doses so it wont affect you bp in a significant way.
However its advisable to to keep an eye by recording your bp if you feel light headed or dizzy at some point.
Kind Regards
