Brief Answer:
No reason to get worried!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about what happened. Always try to keep drugs away from him. However, there is no reason to get worried as persons without hypertension do take this same drug for other conditions such as headaches, chest pains, etc. There is no single reason to get worried at this time. Take measures and make sure this never happens again as the next time may be a potentially dangerous medication.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
