Are There Any Adverse Effects Of Avapro Withdrawal?

My doctor took me off the generic form of Avapro because my blood pressure began to drop often. But now I am away from home and my bp is 168/93 and my pulse is 59. I did not bring the medicine with me. I am a 78 year old female and weigh 150 lbs. I will be home tomorrow afternoon and will take an Avapro then. I guess I want to know if it imperative that I try to see a doctor(whom I don’t know) tonight in this town.
