What Are The Effect Of Accidental Overdose Of Lisinopril?

my doctor changed my blood pressure pills from lisinopril - hctz 10-12.5 mg to lisinopril 10 mg because my pressure was a little low. I took 1 pill at 8am this morning and at 9:30 pm I accidentally took another one (I thought it was my cholosterol pill) could this be harmful?

Hello dear user!
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns!
Thank you for sharing them on healthcaremagic.
Well, just an extra dose might not cause problems with your blood pressure. It may affect slightly your bp, and lower it a little bit more, as in the time you were taking combined pill of lisinopril and Hctz. Just consider like you have taken your old pill you used to before.
Take regularly the other pills and you will be good.
I hope this answer was helpful to you!
