Took a Blood Pressure pill by mistake

I’m not really cognitive right now. I was trying to take my evening meds, and I took a blood pressure pill instead of my antipsychotic. I took the AP as soon as I realized my mistake, but I ended up double dosing the BP pill.

Yes. I’m afraid that’s what’s going to happen to me. I don’t have to do anything tomorrow luckily.

I hope you are okay, doubling your meds can be very dangerous.I don’t take bp meds but I do take diabetic meds. I once took double my metformin by accident and my blood sugar dropped to 1.9, I felt like total sh*t, its kind like an anxiety attack, weakness, dizziness, nausea, I felt like I was going to pass out, I had to quickly eat a bunch of sugar. The danger is that if your blood sugar goes low enough you can slip into a diabetic coma and die.

I didn’t think anything about what you said. It’s probably what I should do. I used to get my meds prepackaged by day and time of day. I just got tired of have to get my meds a week’s worth at a time.

Ah. I can understand that.
I have a pill packaging, which says what medications, and for one dose at a time.

I now get a 90 day supply at a time. That way if I’m snowed or iced in I’ll have meds on hand.
