I take 40mg of Lisinopril daily in the mornings. What if I accidentally doubled that dose?

Hi. I sorta of done same thing, but didn't double it. I just took it about 15 hrs apart. I take lisinopril/hctz 10-12.5. When I was at the pharmacy early around 4pm it was 107/64. That was before I took the medicine early.
Taking a double dose will likely result in your experiencing more side effects, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination and hypotension. It's not a dangerous amount, unless your heart rate and blood pressure are already low, then it may cause fainting, heart failure, respiratory failure or other dangerous issues.

If you do accidentally double up, it would be best to inform your doctor, to be safe.
Hope this helps!
