My husband took his Saturday and Sunday evening meds during dinner; pradaxa, metopropal tartrate, and flomax. Is this a huge problem? I'm more worried about the pradaxa. I looked up the metopropal tartrate but could not find pradaxa. ## Hi Patti, According to the University of Maryland Medical Center's drug interaction tool, there is a quote "medium interaction potential" between Flomax and Metoprolol. Their warning denotes the following concerns: *Treatment with both drugs may result in low blood pressure (too low I'm assuming) *Using both together may result in an increased risk of certain side effects *Call your doctor if you feel lightheaded, or have fainting spells They also go on to state that your doctor may change the dose or how often you use one or both of ...

I noticed tonight that it appears I have taken an extra dose of my bisoprolol but I'm not sure if it was today or not I take 2.5 MG per day and am 34 years old. I'm wondering if I should be worried about this or not! ## Hello, Becky! How are you? Did you experience any adverse effects? Taking an extra dose once isn't usually a huge concern, especially at such a low dose, though it may cause more side effects than usual, which the U.S. FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, and hypotension. However, it is always best to double check with your doctor, emergency services, or poison control, to be safe.

What if I took 50mg of losartan and 2 hours later accidentally took it again? What can happen? ## Hi Daisy, Sorry to hear about the mishap. In my opinion I think it would be best to notify your prescribing doctor (or poison control) of what happened so that they may be able to assist you in the event of adverse reactions, extreme hypotension, etc. If this happened to me I would also probably be monitoring my blood pressure levels frequently over the next couple days to get a better idea of how my body is responding. How are you feeling? ## I accidentally took 250 mg tablets of losartan 50mg.

The information you've received is correct, that is not a dangerous dose, your blood pressure and heart rate may go a bit lower than normal and you may experience more side effects, as reported by the FDA, which may include nausea, dizziness and headache. Just make sure to inform your doctor at your next visit. Is there anything else I can help with? ## With mistake i take lokarpan 50 mg tab with in period of three hours what is side effects.

I took 100mg Losartan Potassium at 3pm but I think I may have taken one at 3 am also. I work shift work and I don't remember taking the 3 am dose. Will I have a problem taking a dose 12 hours apart? ## Hi Craig, From what I've researched, standard adult dosing for Losartan is considered to be anywhere from 25mg-100mg taken daily in one or two divided doses. However, the prescribing packet doesn't go on to mention any specific time intervals. Having said that, it seems to me like you're supposed to wait a full 24 hours after your last 100mg dose before taking anymore... So if you aren't sure about the time frame in which you took your last dose then I can't say there's a right or wrong answer... You may just have to be your own best judge through self monitori...

I took my pills tonight from my pill box and then found Atenalol on the carpet so I took it. I'm just worried that it may have fallen there when I was refilling my pill boxes. I'm hoping I just dropped it when I took them and took the one I was supposed to have taken. Would 2 doses hurt me? ## An occasional double dose isn't likely to hurt you, as long as you aren't allergic to it, according to FDA reports, but your blood pressure and heart rate may drop lower than normal, you may also experience more dizziness, and drowsiness, than usual. How are you doing? Did you experience any adverse effects?

Doubling up on the blood pressure/cardiac medications could result in dangerously lowered blood pressure and heart rate, which may require medical attention, especially at your age, since it could cause you to be more sensitive to the effects of medications.
