What Are The Repercussions Of Taking Additional Dosage Of Micardis?
Hello. I was wondering, I am taking Micardis + 80/20 and what would happen if I accidently took 2 tabs instead of one? Like not at the same time, but if I forgot and took it a 2nd time like an hour later?? What adverse effects that I should be worried about, if any? I am 56 yrs weight 226 lbs. BP is generally about 140/80. Thank you

Hi
It will not be considered even close to an overdose but you can expect effects like increased heartbeat, change in heart rhythm, vision abnormalities, swelling in extremities, etc. But these are rare when a situation like the one you put forward occur, but are not impossible either.
Best wishes
