It sounds like you took the 2 doses hours apart from each other so this should not be a problem. If you have a blood pressure cuff at home, you could monitor your blood pressure. If not, monitor for symptoms like dizziness and lightheadedness. But, since you took the second dose hours from the first dose, you should be fine. Re-start the med at the proper time tomorrow. Best of luck to you!!

Agree with Dr. Ferranti. To prevent further mix ups, you may wish to acquire a pill dispenser to organize your medications and ensure regular intake.
