Brief Answer:
Should be OK, Hydrate and Monitor
Detailed Answer:
Hi Hillary, Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic. Could you please tell me which blood pressure tablet was taken? That would help greatly. In the mean time. I suggest you lie down and keep yourself well hydrated. If you have the means to, have your blood pressure checked over the next 30 minutes.
Looking forward to your reply,
Vinay

Hi,
Thankyou. I am drinking lots of water and feel ok lisprinipol 10. I cannot check my blood pressure unless I go into a doctor. I typed in my question to research myself and came across this site.

Brief Answer:
Lisinopril should be OK
Detailed Answer:
Alrighy, I think you will be Ok. Get some rest and put a little extra salt in your diet for the day.. have some salty chips or something.. that will keep your pressures up until the tablet wears off. Which should be in around 12 to 18 hours.. the amount of time for it to be out of your system.
Make sense? Let me know what you need.
