Suggest Treatment For Accidental Ingestion Of Perindopril In A 18 Year Old

I think I may have taken the wrong medication. My 18 yr old is on 50mg of levothyroxine and I am on 2mg of perindopril they look alike and I m not sure if I got them mixed up or not. When I was doing the medication this morning I dropped the two tablets and now I am doubting if I have given my daughter the right. This happened at 8.00 this morning. We r both feeling fine at the minute

One application of either is not generally very serious. The effects peak about 1-2 hrs after taking. The only serious side effect of bp medicine is low bp and this is either felt or it isn't. If someone doesn't feel faint, the bp isn't bad.
