A member asked:

I accidentally took a second 40mg dose of lisinopril, about 12 hours.apart. should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Maximum daily dose of lisinopril is 80mg in a 24hr period. If one is normally on 40mg daily as determined by prescribing doctor, a higher than prescribed dose may result in temporary low blood pressure. Lasting approximately 12-24 hours. Too high of a dose may also raise potassium. If any symptoms of dizziness or lightheadedness develop would go to er.

A member asked:

Hello! I Take 10mg of lisinopril everyday- two 5mg tablets. Today I only had 1 tablet with me so I had to wait to take the other half which was about an hour in between. Will waiting the hour to take the other dose cause any issue with my BP?
