No BP Rx: This blood pressure medicine wears of within 24 hrs.Thats why one must take it daily.Be sure the BP comes down once you are back on your rx.

Keep checking!!: Probably from skipping diuretic and shifts in fluids. Keep a watch, if high readings persist, get checked out. This is not too uncommon, however.
