Does Skipping Quinapril For High BP Cause Any Side Effects?

I just left my home for a short vacation. I left my back pack with all my medications at home including Quinapril 40mg. I will be back home on June 23, which means I will have gone 3 days without my medications. Will this be a problem???? My blood pressure is usually 120/70.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Since your BP is almost near normal, skipping quinapril for three days may not do much harm and there is no need for concern. However for regular control of BP without complication, one must take the BP medicine regularly daily. In future kindly check your medicine pack before you are going for a short vacation.
