Wrong medicine taken by mistake

Question

Asked for Male, 34 Years

Hello Sir/mam, I am under treatment for the heart blockage and on medicines (Prax 10 and Metocard XL 75 in morning and Ecospirin AV 75/20 in night). I have undergone the angioplasty and 3 stents were put in two arteries. I mistakenly took the prax and metocard in night which doctor has adviced to take in morning. Should I take the Ecospirin as well which I take in night. Also is there any side effact of taking another dose of prax and metocard in night which I have already in the morning? Thanks. Kindly Advice.

Don’t take metocard as a double dose in the same day. It will cause reduction in BP and heart rate. Rest is fine.
