Wait: If you take an extra dose of the blood pressure / heart medication it could lower blood pressure or pulse too much and risk dizziness or passing out. Blood pressure may be higher if in fact you did not take your dose earlier, but if blood pressure is generally under control missing one dose is less risk.
