Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

I'm a bit anxious right now. I usually take my Nubeta 2.5 at around 11am every day, but I got confused and took it again at midnight thinking it was my multivitamin. My blood pressure was around 14090 before using Nubeta. I'm worried about what kind of side effects I might experience because of this. Can you help me understand what to expect and if I should do anything specific?

This medication is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure. Taking an extra dose may lead to a drop in blood pressure, causing symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fatigue, and a slow heart rate. Since your blood pressure was 14090 before starting Nubeta, it is important to monitor your blood pressure closely for the next few hours. If you experience any concerning symptoms or if your blood pressure drops significantly, please seek medical attention.
