Are there any side effects of taking anti-hypertensive twice?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My husband used to have Losar Beta H for his BP in the morning and Storvas 10 mg at night. But, mistakenly, he had Losar Beta H again at night. Will it cause any side effects? Should he have Storvas now? Please help.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Do not worry. He can have Atorvastatin now. But he should not repeat this mistake again. I suggest he takes a combination of Losartan, Atenolol, and Hydrochlorothiazide at a specific time of the day, keeping it in a separate pill box. A single extra dose of Losar Beta will not cause him many problems. Just ask him to drink lots of water, around 68 ounces (2 liters) per day, and some rest for today.

I hope this helps.

Please revert so I can assist you further.

Thank you.
