Hello,
Thanks for your question here.
A siingle instance of taking a double dose of Amlodipine is fine.
If your blood pressure is within normal limits, then you have nothing to worry.
You only need to make sure that you do not get up from sitting or laying down position suddenly, do that slowly for today.
If your blood pressure is under good control with one 5mg pill of Amlodipine, then in future make sure not to take extra doses, and do follow your doctor's advice.
