What Are The Side Effects Of Taking Overdose Of Atacand?

Hi,My dad normally takes Atacand 8 once a day (in the morning). He accidentally took another pill (of the 8) again this evening. Should I be worried? He has just gone to bed, but I wonder if I need to take him to see a doctor? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!
