Your blood pressure shoots up for a while if you miss one dose. One missed pill does not cause immediate danger. But you invite heart attacks, strokes, and kidney failure if you skip pills regularly. Patients sometimes face headaches, dizzy spells, and fast heartbeats.
Many people feel completely normal without any symptoms. But untreated high BP silently damages your blood vessels over time. Long-term high BP ruins your kidneys, eyes, and brain. You face a massive risk of sudden heart attacks and strokes.
