Hi. I took one dose of Losartan 100 mg & Amlodipine 5 mg at 8am & again the same dose I took by mistake at 8 pm. Will I be ok?

In most cases, an occasional extra dose of this class of medications isn't really harmful, though it is best to double check with your doctor, or pharmacist.

The FDA warns that the increased dosage could cause you to experience more severe side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.

How are you doing? Did you experience any adverse effects?

Took 5mg amlodipine in the am and couldn't remember if I had taken it so I took 10mg at 11, about 13 hours later accidentally. Should I be worried?

I mistakingly took Amlodipine 20mg in the morning and evening thinking the drug was for treating headaches, not knowing it's not made for headaches. Please, what should I do now? I am now feeling a strong headache like I want to run mad for some days now.
